Some parts of southern Montana may get up to 10 fresh inches of snow this weekend. Southern Gallatin County, the Beartooth Foothills and the Red Lodge areas should be the winners of the end-of-season storm.
The spring storm that has brought snow and heavy wind to the entire state of Montana this week has turned out to be an absolute mess for travelers on the roads.
As much as a pain traveling may become, Montana getting hammered with mountain snow for the next few days is a really great thing. The old cliché about "we need the moisture" is getting more true and less casual by the day.
Summer at our house is just plain fun. When we're home it's all about outside, sunshine, big kiddie pools, games, drinks, neighbors, and now...inflatable lobsters.
Southwest Montana is under a High Wind warning until Tuesday afternoon with winds of 60 to 70 mph possible at times, accompanied by snow. Dangerous driving conditions will occur.
Snowpack levels are certainly not at ideal levels throughout southwest Montana at the end of March. A month that often sees big, wet dumps of snow just didn't materialize in 2022.
It's not just Californians or Texans who are trying to move to Montana. There are tons of Montana natives who moved away for college, jobs, marriage, etc., who are actively trying to get back home.
Big Sky's huge rise in popularity is understandable. Two big mountains that you can't possibly cover in a day, super fast lifts, lots of amenities...you'll pay a pretty penny for a Gold season pass for the '22 - '23 season.
