The sound of wind chimes on my front porch at 3am told me winter is back with a complex storm system overhead today. A deep trough of low pressure is moving over the western US today with a large band of moisture in eastern Idaho this morning trying to move north into Montana. Adding complexity, winds are spinning around from the east in much of our forecast area.
This morning it’s snowing in most areas. As of 6am, 2 inches accumulated near West Yellowstone and Island Park, an inch near Big Sky, and a trace at Bridger and near Cooke. Temperatures are mostly in the mid to upper teens F. Light winds are blowing from the E and NE. At the Bridger Ridge, east winds are averaging 30 mph gusting to 48 mph.
Today will be cloudy and snowy. Winds from the E and NE will increase through the day gusting in the 40s this afternoon. Snowfall amounts are tricky to forecast with east winds. Most areas will get a few inches. Mountains near West Yellowstone and Island Park are supposed to get 8-12 inches if moisture in Idaho is able to move north. My money is on Red Lodge where it was snowing hard at 4am and a foot of snow could easily stack up today.
This morning temperatures are in the upper teens F in most areas and a few degrees warmer in the Bridgers. Winds picked up a bit yesterday afternoon/evening at upper elevations and are blowing 7-14 mph with gusts 20-30 mph from the west this morning. Gusts in Hyalite Canyon hit 40 mph. Near Cooke City, an inch of snow fell early this morning.
Today will have a mix of sun and clouds with more clouds near West Yellowstone, Island Park, and Cooke City. High temperatures will range from 25-30 degrees F. Winds will continue as they are this morning, but should be decreasing and becoming light by the end of the day.
Snow comes tomorrow (Thursday) favoring southern parts of the forecast area with about 5 inches of snow and a few inches further north. The next chance of snow comes the middle of next week.
This morning, mountain temperatures are in the teens F, with 5-10 mph winds from the west through the north. The mountains around Bozeman received 2-4” of new snow, with 1-2” in Big Sky and none in the mountains around Cooke City, West Yellowstone and Island Park.
Today, temperatures will be in the mid-20s to low-30s F, with 5-10 mph winds shifting from the northwest to the southwest. By tomorrow morning, a trace to 1” of snow will fall across most of the advisory area. The next chance for significant snow is Thursday.
Temperatures are high 20s to mid-30s F this morning. Yesterday wind was light from the east, southeast and southwest, and this morning wind shifted to west, northwest and north at 5-15 mph with gusts of 15-25 mph.
Today skies will be mostly cloudy with temperatures in the 20s and low 30s F. Wind will be northerly at 5-15 mph with gusts to 25 mph. Snow showers late this afternoon will favor the mountains near Bozeman with 3-5” possible by morning and 1-2” elsewhere.
This morning temperatures are high 20s to mid-30s F, 5-10 degrees warmer than yesterday morning. Winds are westerly at 5-15 mph with gusts of 15-30 mph.
