Kayla Posted September 11, 2017 Report Share Posted September 11, 2017 Lots of ECMWF ensemble members are showing some pretty significant early season snow chances for Bozeman over the next 10 days. Looks like our first chance of accumulating snow begins Friday morning continuing through Saturday morning. The ECWMF has been a lot more robust with the depth of the cold and the precipitation amounts while it looks like the GFS has been showing less but seems to be slowly catching up. It's been a little since Bozeman has seen snow in September. Last occurrence was Sept 30th of 2009 when 5.5" fell. September record is 7.0" of snowfall in 1985. Plenty of impressive EPS members showing snowfall even at the airport which is nearly 1,000' lower in elevation than me. 1 Quote Cold Season 2023/24: Total snowfall: 26" Highest daily snowfall: 5" Deepest snow depth: 12" Coldest daily high: -20ºF Coldest daily low: -42ºF Number of subzero days: 5 Personal Weather Station on Wunderground: https://www.wunderground.com/personal-weather-station/dashboard?ID=KMTBOZEM152#history Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kayla Posted September 13, 2017 Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 This upcoming trough just keeps looking more and more impressive for mid September in the Northern Rockies. 700mb temps look to drop to -7C now which means it's looking a lot more promising to see some decent snowfall here Friday night into Saturday. In fact the Canadian paints 4-6" over downtown Bozeman and 6-10" over my roof. Euro and GFS show just a trace-1" for town and 1-3" at my house.

Kayla Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 Pattern change can be well felt this morning with temps in the upper 40's and a stiff north breeze. Received 0.16" yesterday afternoon which is just a drop in the bucket with what's coming up over the next couple of days. Still looking at widespread 1-2" of precip through Saturday. Snow is now looking likely down to the valley floor beginning Friday night into Saturday. Looks like downtown Bozeman should pick up 1-2" of snowfall where I should see about 3-6" on my roof. Quite the early season snowfall! I'm going to have to look back to see when the last time Bozeman saw this early of a significant snowfall.

If Bozeman gets more than 1", looks like it will be the first time this early since 1988. If they get more than 2", you'd have to go all the way back to 1910.

Kayla Posted September 14, 2017 Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 So looking back at Bozeman for largest early season snowfall. 1910 holds the top step when 3.0" fell on August 24th. Second earliest significant snowfall is September 7th of 1941 when 2.0" fell. September 16th record daily snowfall is 1.5" So, if latest model guidance holds true, Bozeman may see the 3rd earliest 2"+ snowfall and possibly a new daily record. 1 Quote Cold Season 2023/24: Total snowfall: 26" Highest daily snowfall: 5" Deepest snow depth: 12" Coldest daily high: -20ºF Coldest daily low: -42ºF Number of subzero days: 5 Personal Weather Station on Wunderground: https://www.wunderground.com/personal-weather-station/dashboard?ID=KMTBOZEM152#history Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Hole Posted September 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 ECMWF ensemble mean has about 1" of precipitation overnight. I think that is going to depend on where convection occurs but everybody around here should get something. Pretty chilly airmass too, but the one coming the middle of next week looks even colder as Front Ranger pointed out. A few of the coldest ensemble members have snow in the hills around my area with that storm, even though I think that is unlikely it should be quite chilly with another decent soaking. 1 Quote Winter 23-24: Total Snow (3.2") Total Ice (0.2") Coldest Low: 1F Coldest High: 5F Snow Events: 0.1" Jan 5th, 0.2" Jan 9th, 1.6" Jan 14, 0.2" (ice) Jan 22, 1.3" Feb 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can get that -7C 700mb temp to verify then I think we could see some decent accumulations even down to the valley floor (~4,800').In SLC the "magic number" for 700 mb temps changes a bit seasonally. -7C is usually good enough for snow in winter but not this time of year. That is true because lapse rates tend to be a bit steeper in fall and spring. On the flip side this tends to make systems more convectively active. Anyway I guess my point is that its probably similar for you in that regard (our elevations are similar, but the valley floor is 4200 ft here). -7C is probably less effective than in winter, but with heavy precip you could end up getting snow anyway, and that looks to happen at this point.

Black Hole Posted September 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2017 For some perspective on September snow around here, it is rare, but happens. The last time it snowed in September was 2007, I believe the 29th. Just a trace at the airport, but there was an inch or two on the hills around town. Earliest on record was 1965 with 2.2" on the 17th, or for a trace it was just a day earlier in 1945.

It's going to be close for the valley here but the nighttime timing looks good and should be enough with -7C 700mb temps and moderate to heavy precip rates. My elevation south of downtown Bozeman is 5,350' so -6C @700mb is usually enough for me here, especially overnight.

epiceast Posted September 15, 2017 Report Share Posted September 15, 2017 Here is their afd, all about eating crowPREV DISCUSSION.../ISSUED 541 PM MDT Thu Sep 14 2017/Rest of Today through Saturday...The widespread precipitationevent is underway across a large part of our forecast area atthis time. Where precip has been most persistent (ie. Lincoln toGreat Falls to Glasgow), snow levels have fallen as low as around5000 feet based on webcams and ground truth reports. Modelguidance has not handled snow levels well in this area andadjustments were made to the forecast through this evening toaccount for these trends. North of the above-mentioned area,precip has been slower to develop. However, recent radar trendssuggest the low/mid level flow is finally beginning to turn moreNE/E, which will lead to enhanced upslope flow and a gradualfilling in of precip with time as we go into this evening. Thatsaid, I still think precip amounts along the Hi-line will be lowerthan further south as the current setup favors the central and SWmountains and adjacent areas.Initially, most roads over passes should be wet, but as temperaturesfall, impacts should begin at pass level. Given cooler conditionsbeing seen than was originally forecast, I have upped snowfallamounts at/above pass level through the event. This will likely leadto increased impacts for travelers over passes as well as folksrecreating in the mountains. This will also be an impact for allthe fire personnel in operations at this time. For all thesereasons, and it being the first snow of the season, we decided toup the Winter Weather Advisory to a warning for the central MTmountains and SW mountains. However, in the Glacier National Parkarea, we`ll keep the Advisory as is as snowfall amounts/impactslook less. On last note. SW MT will see some thunderstorms thisafternoon before transitioning to steady, light/moderate rain andmountain snow. Precip tapers off from west to east on Saturday.MARTI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even snow in March is pretty annoying. I prefer to see everything blooming by then. I would not like going from hot and smoky to snow. Too extreme. Our garden is still going gangbusters. On the upside... this is literally the first time I have not seen smoke on the Flathead Lake cam in weeks.
