This morning Big Sky and Cooke City received an inch of snow. Other places may have been dusted. Temperatures were in the high 20s and low 30s F, and winds were blowing 15-20 mph from the WSW. Don’t get your hopes up for snowfall today. An inch of snow may fall at most. Otherwise, clouds will linger over the area and give way to more sunshine for Friday. Today temperatures should climb into the 40s F with winds blowing 10-15 mph from the WNW. Long term weather forecasts are not too reliable, but we’re desperate. Weather models are showing a decent chance for snow starting Sunday night. We’ll see.
Yesterday, under sunny skies, mountain temperatures hit the high forties with southwest winds blowing 15-20 mph. Clouds rolled in last night and at 5 a.m. temperatures are near freezing except in the Bridger Range where they are in the upper thirties. Today will be mostly cloudy with mountain temperatures once again skirting 50F as winds remain light out of the southwest. Late tonight an inch of snow may fall, or a little rain depending on the freezing level which is forecasted to be around 7,500 feet. Light precipitation will continue into the morning; enough accumulation to be annoying but not enough for a round of high fives.
Sunny skies and above average temperatures are the norm right now. Mountain temperatures reached into the low 40s yesterday with southwest winds blowing15-20 mph and gusts of 30 mph. This morning temperatures have cooled into the upper 20s. Today will reach close to 50F under sunny skies with light southwest winds. Clouds and isolated showers are expected Wednesday night, but until then, enjoy the summer.
High pressure continues to dominate the weather pattern. This morning temperatures are in the 20s F under clear skies and winds are blowing 10-20 mph out of the west. Today, temperatures will be 10-15 degrees above average warming into the mid to upper 40s F. Skies will remain mostly clear and winds will continue to blow 10-20 mph out of the west. Spring like conditions will continue over the next few days.

Today, temperatures will warm into the 30s and 40s F under partly cloudy skies and winds will continue to blow 10-20 mph out of the W-NW.

Mountain temperatures this morning were in the mid-20s F with westerly winds blowing 10-20 mph. Today should have some clouds, temperatures rising into the 30s and 40s F, and winds continuing 10-20 mph.
This morning temperatures were almost 10 degrees warmer than yesterday morning. Temperatures in most places were near 20 degrees F and ridgetop winds were blowing 20-30 mph from the NW in some locations and SW in others. Winds and temperatures were a little calmer and cooler near West Yellowstone and Cooke City. Today will be similar to yesterday but warmer. Temperatures will be in the 30s and 40s F, and winds should blow 20-30 mph at ridgetops mostly from the W and NW.
The only notable change in the weather is that winds increased overnight mostly near Bozeman and Big Sky blowing 20-40 mph from the W with temperatures in the teens F. Further south temperatures were in the single digits F, and winds were blowing 5-15 mph from the W. A ridge of high pressure over the area today will bring sunny skies and temperatures warming into the upper 20s and low 30s F with strong winds continuing from the W.
There’s no new snow to report this morning, just clear skies under a nearly full moon. Mountain temperatures are in the single digits below zero with ridgetop winds averaging 15 mph and gusting to 30 out of the north to northwest – strong enough to freeze your face off. Temperatures will rise into the low 20s under clear skies as winds remain steady. A strong high pressure system builds today which will block moisture and bring above average temperatures into the weekend. Wah.
It was quite novel shoveling my walk this morning, only if it was just an inch of snow. The mountains fared better with almost two inches falling and three inches reported around West Yellowstone. Currently, mountain temperatures are a few degrees below 0F with light winds out of the north to northeast. Snow flurries will stop this morning and skies will become partly cloudy with temperatures rising into the teens and winds remaining northerly and light. Before the storm ends an inch more could fall around West Yellowstone and Cooke City, but then high pressure builds and chances for snow are zilch through the weekend. A couple inches never felt so deep.
