Strange, early season winter storm has descended on Montana since Friday night. Still snowing here, but the worse is over.....at least here.

North of us on the Blackfeet Reservation they have THREE FEET on the ground with blizzard conditions really blowing and drifting it around.
Same for the Cutbank, MT area. Brutal weather conditions.

St Mary's by Glacier Park had 40" earlier this afternoon. Probably added more this afternoon.

Supposed to end by early AM.

Bet this will get limited MSM coverage as it doesn't meet their "Global Warming: agenda.

Relish it, sounds great for the water table out there! Or in your area is water not a real concern?

Makes me happy for the 80 degree day today. I’ll pass in the white stuff.

Missouri River is 400 yds North of me. My well is probably plugged into an aquifer supported by the River. But I agree...We ALWAYS like water out here. Should give all the trees a good drink before Winter too.

Wow. We usually have at least one minor snowstorm here by now, but I’ve never seen anything like that this early. We could actually use some precipitation to reduce the “very high” fire danger posted in most counties in our area. Light snow is forecast, but not until Friday.

You are probably right about the agendas and their effects on reporting, but heavy snow is not actually evidence against rising temperatures. Higher temps lead to more water being evaporated into the air, and sooner or later it will precipitate out; if it’s cold enough, that will be snow, and sometimes lots of it.

You must be near Helena. My buddy there is reporting same as you.

I actually did see a weather report on this Montana slammed with over a foot of snow, as 'major winter storm' to drop several more feet in area

45 miles north of Helena, just north of Craig.

I've been watching this early season hard hitting storm and it's snow total predictions across several Northern states for the last couple days...all excited that somebody is getting the 'good stuff'.

Hashtag # jealous!

Send some this way.

Freakin 90° here ...

Frank, tried to send you an email but your profile email got rejected.

Something to look forward to in a few months!

Where I don’t want snow this early, the fact that it’s going to be 95 here on Tuesday and Wednesday just reminds me I need to get the heck out of here

Luckily, the storm didn’t hit the West Glacier area. Just cold, wind and a few flurries. Tonight will be our first frost.

We got flurries all day in Park City but that's it. I hadn't heard about all that snow you guys were getting. Wow.

Current temp here at 12:47am is 81. Wish you could ship some white stuff down here and I'd send you some restored beach sand back.

Grass.......greener.....something...something.

That weather is right in my wheelhouse.

I want to live where the balmy days of august are like 72.

While I’m not ready for 3+ feet of snow, I AM a bit jealous of the cooler temps as we’re facing 95-96 degree temps for at least another week, and I’m completely sick of the heat!!!

Stay safe up there amigo..
