Black Hole

Recommended Posts

Temp has ranged between 36 and 39 for the past 36 hours, and looks like that will continue through tomorrow as well. Fairly unusual.

 

Text from my wife about an hour ago... "its freezing cold here and I need a warmer jacket".

 

I guess she has to walk between her hotel and the convention center and also to restaurants.

Really cold and raw day here today with snow flurries around most of the day but never accumulated. We had 20-35mph easterly winds all day which kept the wind chill values in the 20's most of the day. Definitely did not feel anything like early October.

 

The warmup keeps getting pushed back now as well. Models are even hinting at an even colder airmass moving in on Saturday now with snowfall.

1.15" at my house with the storm, and 3.25" for the month.

Some places in SLC had about 2" of rain last night. Also saw temps fell to 33F in the upper benches so probably some wet snow up there.

Looks to shut down now with dry weather for a while, but already well above normal for the month! Some of that cold air that will blast you guys may sneak in here Sunday-Monday.

High of just 36F here today with a flurry storm throughout the day. Didn't amount to anything really except for blowing around a bit on the roads this morning.

 

Still on for a strong cold front to push through here Friday night. Snowfall is looking light, maybe an inch or two at this point.

Dropped down to 23.7F this morning, my coldest temp of the season so far. Finally have some sunshine today and should reach the 50's for the first time since the October 3rd. 

 

Strong cold front moving in tonight which will drop highs into the low 30's tomorrow and teens for lows over the weekend. Expecting 2-4" of snowfall here and 1-3" in town.

Down to 28F and dropping here with heavy snow falling. Looks like about an inch so far but the snow should continue through noon today.

 

Bobcats are playing at home today at 2pm. Snow will likely be over by then but the fresh snow and post frontal winds will still make for a very cold and raw game with wind chills in the teens and low 20's.

This front has been really impressive for mid October! Down to 26F with 20+ mph north winds and a current wind chill reading of 12F.

Looks like the field work crews have their work cut out for them to get things ready for kickoff in about 3 hours!

Down to 20F at Kayla's house it looks like. Impressive cold. 

 

Was just going to say! Pretty impressive for only 7:30pm and still with a solid cloud deck overhead. If we see any sort of clearing we should easily drop into the low teens tonight.

 

Ended up with 7" of snow with no melting or compacting throughout the day. Quite the October storm!

Love watching these snowy fronts slide down the Rockies.

 

Initial cold front arrived here about 45 minutes ago, dropping temps from near 60 to the mid 40s. Showers are moving in and should quickly switch to snow by 10.

 

Enjoy it down there!

 

Moderate snow has actually started back up here again. Might put a damper on the record lows for here tonight but could add to snowfall totals.

Only dropped down to 18F here last night due to an extensive low cloud deck and snow showers. Ended up with another inch of snow raising my 24 hour snowfall total to 8".

 

Looks Bozeman has a current snow base of 8" but it is suspect because it shows them only seeing 4" of snowfall on the day yesterday. If the 8" holds true it would be the highest October snow depth since 1975.

The Rams / Broncos game tomorrow is going to be interesting if the snow continues into the afternoon tomorrow, especially if the snow begins to stick as opposed to melting.

 

Some Ram players have never been in sub-freezing games. Looks like that is not a problem so far.

Still some great fall colors in Bozeman but we're well past peak and the leaves are falling quickly now. Still beautiful to see the colors with the snow though.

I hit 26.5F this morning. A killing freeze to be sure as it wiped out everything that was left in my garden.

First above average day here yesterday since Oct 2nd. As such, the Bozeman area sits at -7F departure on the month which will rise but it's looking like a lock for another below average month.

 

Pretty boring weather here for the next 5-6 days otherwise. Slightly above average and dry. Possible pattern change to cooler/wetter as we approach the last week of the month which would make sense climatology speaking.

Looks like a good trough moves through near Halloween here. Depending on details, perhaps a little snow with it.

Kind of a complicated and active upcoming pattern here. Next week is looking extremely wet with varying snow levels. Accumulating snowfall is looking likely here but just how much is the question. Not really a good consensus with the models either.

 

As of right now it looks like Monday, Wednesday into Thursday morning and over the weekend look to be the best shots of accumulating snow in Bozeman.

 

Either way, the surrounding mountains look to get slammed which means ski season begins next week!

Snowing here. About an inch so far on the ground and 32F. Looks like it should be ending soon though.

 

Next chance of snow is on Halloween, sorry kiddos!
