Snow was prevelant above 8000ft in my area during the last weather event. some areas received up to a foot of snow.The next system is slowly moving in to make another rain event. Fall is here...but for how long maybe in a week or so it will fell like Winter. I have seen -20 at this time and 3feet of snow on the level. I remember one Halloween about 10yrs ago when many trick or treaters ran from cars to gather candy as the night gave way to -24 after a heavy snow blanketed the area.

Wow...what an exciting Halloween (Sounds wonderful)

albeit a bit touch to "Trick or Treat" and one could imagine the primary costume of choice that year in your neck of the woods must have been an "Eskimo"

I like the Eskimo comment. The weather has slowly been getting colder and falling into a winter state much more gradual than normal. Most times it like somenone switched a switch. But this fall has been very pleasant with the mild weather. This next week a small disturbance could give us our first snow of the year.

Last night we recieved about an inch of snow. the area is now has a white covering. The lakes are now frozen and it is now a winter gripped area. As is normal, sometime around May we should see some thawing and a few birds may return. But until that time cold and snow will prevail throughout the Greater Yellowstone region.

This morning i woke up and it was -2 the forecast was a bit warmer but raditional cooling created perfect conditions to become sub zero. Todays actual high is 23. The record low for todays date is -11. Most days the record low is in the -20's and some -30's.

Hey there pal have a few quick questions for ya, I know you have answered this question before however I just can not remember what the answer was that you provided.

(1) What is your "Elevation"

(2) Are you actually located in "Millcrick"?
Reason I ask is because when I enter that spelling into a glossary, it comes back as an unknown location and tells me to check the spelling

Do you have a mailing "Zipcode" that I can punch in, or do you operate out of a PO box?

Thank You

I am 100 miles to the South East of Missoula.

Well I do live in millcrick...With that said its not a town or anything, It's a creek. So not surprising you cant find anything. The zipcode would be 59711. That is for Anaconda I live about 5 miles to the south and am about 7,000ft. I will get photos up as soon as i can get out after this next storm.
Which according to some weather sites we may receive anywhere from 2-16" of snow.

The winter has turned into an indian summer here in the Northern rockies. Our highs have been up towards the 40's with light winds and no precip...That is all about to change, I hope. A strong system will start moving into the area Tuesday night with the chance of up to a foot or two of fresh snow to blanket the area. Cold air will then infiltrate the area probably sub zero if history is any indication.

It could be that, but I am pretty sure he also has to generate his own electricity out there so he is not always able to post, hence "off the grid"

Hey everyone. Sorry it has been so long since my last post the weather really is poor almost every day is 35degrees and no wind. Even with solar panels we only generate enough power to run the refrigerator and lights when needed. We got a skiff of snow a few days ago but nothing worth mentioning. If this weather pattern continues this will be the first snowless winter as far back as i can recall. As many of you know this time of year we usually have 3-4ft of snow wind howling winds accompanied by subzero temps everymorning. We only have about 6in of snow cover now with very mild temps. With such a mild winter one would expect the wild game populations to increase. This hunting season harvest reports dropped 25-30% compared to previous 5 yrs which all were below average. the wolves have lowered in elevation following food. So now all animals are concentrated in the valley.

Well the weather decided to show some interest in the area the last few days finally. We received about 2 inches of snow over night a few days ago then dropped to around -4 that morning. Winter is still very mild this year. We are yet to drop below zero into -double digits and we have only received less than a foot of snow as of now. The mountains are bare compared to previous years which has everyone in the area worried about fires come October and September.
