Black Hole Posted October 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 Nice today, mid 50s and sunny. Saturday looks chilly still with 700 mb temps falling to -12C, but with little moisture it may just bring some flurries to a dusting. A stronger storm may arrive next weekend.

Kayla Posted October 17, 2017 Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 Pretty run of the mill but pleasant weather here this week. Strong, downsloping winds develop today with temps climbing up to around 70F. Cold front moves in Friday afternoon which will likely turn the rain to snow by Friday evening. We'll possibly see some light accumulations by Saturday morning before a ridge quickly develops raising temps to above normal once again.

Black Hole Posted October 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 The storm on Saturday ended up being weak with no snow, or at least nothing that stuck since it was mostly while I was sleeping. The storm next weekend is also quite watered down at this point. Probably just pleasant fall weather for a while with limited action for now.

Kayla Posted October 20, 2017 Report Share Posted October 20, 2017 It was crazy warm here today. Pulled off a 74F/57F day with strong downsloping winds all day and night. Looking forward to tomorrow afternoons cold front that will drop the temps back into the 30's by late afternoon. Should see some snow fly but unlikely to see much accumulation, if any. Next week is beginning to look a little more interesting (cold/snowy), especially as the week progresses.

Kayla Posted October 21, 2017 Report Share Posted October 21, 2017 Ended up with an 1.5" of wet snow with yesterdays front. Starkly cooler today, currently 34F. Unsettled pattern for the rest of the weekend with strong downsloping winds forecasted once again Tue/Wed and warming temps.

Front Ranger Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 After two listless weeks of dry, warm, boring weather, it looks like the pattern finally starts getting interesting again in about a week or so. In the mean time, at least there's a very fall-like cold front to look forward to on Friday. Should produce highs in the mid 40s with brisk northerly winds. Maybe a few snow showers in the morning. 1 Quote A forum for the end of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayla Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 Sharp cold front is still on for Wednesday night here. Strong downsloping winds tomorrow will raise the temps up into the upper 60's tomorrow afternoon before crashing back into the low 30's Wednesday night. Not a whole lot of moisture with the front as we're lacking upper level support being on the western fringes of the trough. Probably will still be enough to pick up a quick 1-2" of snowfall though.

Kayla Posted October 27, 2017 Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 12z ECMWF says winter starts Monday and sticks around for the foreseeable future up here. Plenty of snow chances beginning Wednesday and lasting through the weekend. Operational shows about a foot over the next 10 days for my area while the EPS ensemble is showing even more. First below zero readings could also start to show up by the weekend as well.

Kayla Posted October 29, 2017 Report Share Posted October 29, 2017 Cold front is currently passing through here this morning. Should start to see the snow start around noon with light accumulations (1-2") expected through this afternoon. After todays front the focus continues to be the Wednesday-Monday period. ECMWF and EPS continue to show significant snow accumulations while the GFS shows just light accumulations as the cold air gets hung up just north of here. GEFS mean shows the cold air sagging more southward so the GFS operational is kind of out on its own. As of right now the NWS seems to be siding with the GFS but it's been a lot more inconsistent over the last few days while the ECMWF has been steadfast.

Under a Winter Storm Watch here now for the first round of 4-8" Wednesday-Friday. Front will lift northward Friday afternoon then drop back south Saturday night bringing another round significant snow accumulation of 4-6". Cold air really settles in here on Sunday night and with a healthy snowpack we should see our first single digit lows to possibly even some below zero readings by Monday morning.

Kayla Posted November 2, 2017 Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 Picked up 8" on the day so far. Downtown Bozeman picked up 5" as of 5pm. Front moved through this afternoon and really dropped the temps. Currently 25F and still snowing moderately but I doubt I'll head out to get another measurement tonight.

Kayla Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 Snow has been relentless here. Getting really tough to keep up on plowing and snow measurements. Haven't even seen the sun since Monday! Picked up another 3" overnight and it's still snowing currently. We're under another Winter Storm Warning through 6pm tomorrow with another 6-10" expected. The warming that was forecasted hasn't materialized as once again the cold air is winning out. We've been in the prime boundary area where the warm moist air is meeting the cold air. Looks like a very heavy snow band associated with the cold front is going to move through here this evening dropping 2-3" per hour snowfall rates. Hard to keep up with this stuff!

Front Ranger Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 Looks like a weak system will bring a chance of snow early next week, then the pattern turns warm/dry.
