Yes, but did it snow?

Can’t offer you any meaningful advice man… but lmk if you need any info on western MT microclimates, real estate, schools etc. On the bright side, you’re in the best summer climate region in the country. Even NW MT gets hotter, smokier, etc. the only people I’ve ever heard complain about the summer wx here are Seattlites and Canadians lol

Brother, you deserve to be happy. At the very least you should work out a compromise. It sounds like you have stayed put there for almost 2 decades which is a compromise in of itself.

The mountains were essentially snowless until 12/12 if that gives you an idea.

How close are you to the mountains?
