Montana Snow Pack and Precipitation

Montana snow pack and precipitation, February 1, 2010

by Wayne Mumford January 31, 2010

Is it February? January in western Montana was a wash in terms of precipitation, if anything we lost snow pack. I think I actually saw 50°f in town last week when the sun managed to find a hole to shine through. Other than the almost permanent cloud cover, it has been a pretty easy winter- [...]

The Montana weather thing

by Wayne Mumford January 7, 2010

Not even a week ago I was sniveling about the balmy conditions. Mud, slush and slop. Well, it took about 24 hours starting Monday to go from 45°F to 0° by Tuesday am and to continue its decent to an arctic -17° last night. Right before going over the temperture cliff we got a pretty [...]

Half empty or half full?

by Wayne Mumford January 2, 2010

It was in the mid 40’s today in Kalispell. Slush, mud, water and whats left of the snow. Almost a late December thaw instead of the usual January thaw and quite honestly there isn’t much to thaw. You’d have to get up into the 5,000 foot range to find any real measurable snow in this [...]

by Wayne Mumford April 24, 2009

What’s the weather like? It’s about every kind of weather combination found in the northern hemisphere short of tornado’s and hurricanes. It’s about going from 70° and sunshine to a blizzard in minutes and dressing from shorts up to winter storm shells and everything in between. It’s spring time in Montana.
River flows are going up [...]

Montana Snow Pack, April 3, 2009

by Wayne Mumford April 3, 2009

Well, NOAA is pretty much spot on so far for the first week of their latest 8-14 day forecast. Still cold, still freakin’ snowing. Everybody has had it with winter around here.
I suspect that curtains are probably being shredded at an accelerated rate now and those sounds coming from the “man caves” are not little [...]
