PSA:
The NWS always appreciates observations, especially detailed observations that everyone on here is capable of giving. That can be done thru Twitter, as they often set up a feed for that, or the mPing app. That can include final snowfall amounts, when the snow starts/stops, precip type, dew point, etc
This helps them with short term forecasts as well as future forecasts as they can learn from them. A few years ago they had a freezing rain advisory for Leavenworth, but I notified
I’m older than most here and my first visit to Yellowstone was in the late 1960’s. There were plenty of idiots trying to hand-feed the bears. Got to see more than a few. (There were enough idiots hand-feeding bears out of their car windows that the bears learned to associate roads with food, and would hang out along them awaiting handouts. The practice only stopped when the Park Service killed all the habituated bears and cracked down hard on visitors feeding bears. I think this happened circa 1980.
Here’s one photo I trolled up from a quick web search. Looks very familiar. And it is easy to find hundreds of such photos.
Crazy how you can keep racking in the teens in May. All you need is a clear sky and an airmass that isn't completely torching.
Have you ever had a day that reached 90F after bottoming out below freezing?
