“Beautiful scene on the mountain this morning, and a telling sign of the season to come. Care to guess how much snow has accumulated at mid-mountain by 9:30 this morning. The closest guess within a half inch will win an RLM sticker pack.” – Red Lodge, MT today
NOAA issued Winter Weather Advisories for Montana that called for up to 5″ of snow on the highest peaks last night. ย Those Winter Weather Advisories have expired this morning leaving us with great views of snow covered peaks and chairlifts in Montana. ย Snow showers will linger throughout the day.
Beartooth Pass, MT (US-212) has closedย for the 3rd time in 3 weeks due to snow today.
“[ 6:30 AM 9/12/16 ] Beartooth Pass is now closed due to snowy conditions. Rain has begun to transition to snow at high elevations and we are expecting 6 to 8 inches of snow and hazardous travel conditions in the Bighorn Mountains Today into Tuesday morning, so plan accordingly.” – NOAA Billings, MT today
MONTANA SNOW PHOTO TOUR:
im expecting an early, cold, long, snowy winter this year
I’ll say it snowed 6&1/6 inches.
My daughter and I spent a few days in The Tetons and in Yellowstone about three weeks ago. They were expecting snow the day we left. It is one of the most beautiful places that I have even seen.
Photo #5 of your “photo tour” is Red Lodge, MT – not Cooke City, MT.
What is posted Cook City looks more like Red Lodge, Montana ( Snow Creek Saloon).
Thanks! I’ll change it now.
