Today will have more sunshine and warm weather. With an inversion in place this morning, mountain temperatures were in the mid 20s F, and westerly winds were blowing 10-15 mph gusting 25 mph. Temperatures today will rise to the high 20s and low 30s F. Winds will shift to the SW and blow 10-20 mph. Some snow should come Friday afternoon.
Like yesterday, today will be sunny but a little warmer. Currently mountain temperatures are in the high teens to low 20s. Winds are westerly and blowing 20-30 mph in the Bridger Range and Hyalite and 10-20 mph everywhere else. Winds will remain the same and temperatures are expected to rise into the low 30s as high pressure continues to dominate our weather.
Yesterday’s mostly sunny weather was followed by a dusting last night in the northern ranges. At 5 a.m. temperatures are in the mid-teens with light westerly winds (5-15 mph) at all weather stations except the Bridger Ridge where it has been blowing 20-30 mph since midnight. Today will be sunny and mountain temperatures will reach into the high 20s as winds increase to match those in the Bridger Range. A high pressure ridge is blocking any chance of snowfall for the next three days.
The Bridger Range picked up 4” of snow during the day yesterday while the mountains south of Bozeman picked up 1-2”. This morning, mountain temperatures are in the upper teens to low 20s F and winds are light out of the W-SW. A weak ridge of high pressure will build over the region producing calm conditions and partly cloudy skies. Temperatures will warm into the upper 20s F and winds will remain light out of the west. No snow is expected over the next 24 hours.
Since midnight the Bridger Range has picked up three inches of new snow. The rest of the advisory area has picked up a trace to one inch. At 4 a.m. mountain temperatures are in the 20s F and winds are blowing 10-20 mph out of the W-NW with ridgetop gusts reaching close to 30 mph. Today, light snow will continue with an additional 2-4 inches likely in the Bridgers and 1-3 inches elsewhere. Temperatures will warm into the upper 20s to low 30s F and winds will remain light to moderate out of the W-NW. Snow will taper off this evening and temperatures will drop into the teens F.
Mountain temperatures were in the low to mid 20s F this morning and winds were blowing 10-15 mph from the W and SW. Today will be another great one to be in the mountains with temperatures warming into the upper 20s F and winds remaining light. Clouds will build throughout the day with maybe a trace of snow falling tonight and a few more inches during the day tomorrow.
This morning no new snow was recorded at remote weather stations, but some places like Bozeman received a dusting of snow. Temperatures were in the low teens F in the mountains and single digits in valley locations. Light, westerly winds were only blowing 5-10 mph at ridgetops. Today will be a great one to be in the mountains with sunshine, light winds, and temperatures warming into the upper 20s F.
Many valley locations remained cold yesterday, but mountain temperatures were pushing 40 F and this morning were in the high 20s F. Winds increased a little last night but lessened this morning to 15-25 mph from the W. Today a cold front just east Bozeman will keep temperatures from climbing much higher than they are this morning. Winds should blow 15-25 mph and shift to a NW direction.
Yesterday morning before the storm ended Cooke City picked up a couple more inches. At ridgelines winds blew out of the west at 30-40 mph, but have calmed to 10-20 mph last night. At 5 a.m. valley temperatures are in the low teens and mountain temperatures are in the mid-20s. Today will be mostly sunny, temperatures will rise to near freezing and winds will remain light out of the west.
The mountains around Cooke City are in a solar system of their own. Another 12-16 inches of dense snow has fallen in the last 24 hours and it’s still snowing. The Bridger Range only picked up another inch and the other ranges got 3-5”, but the amounts are misleading since the snow was very wet and it rained to 7,000 feet. Currently mountain temperatures are near freezing with lower 20s being recorded around West Yellowstone and Cooke City. West to southwest winds are averaging 20-30 mph with gusts of 40, except up Hyalite where the gusts have hit 60 mph. Today will be cloudy, winds will decrease and another 2-4 inches will fall around Cooke City.
