Where does it snow the most in Montana?

Answer 1

Friends of mine who live in Montana tell me the weather there is usually very pleasant, but there are times when it can be unpredictable. Generally, in winter, temperatures hover in the low teens, and in the summer, they are in the 80s or 90s (Fahrenheit); but there have been extreme periods of weather when temperatures dropped below zero, or rose to over 100 degrees. The state also has mountainous regions where there can be heavy snowstorms: in fact, this year, parts of the state have experienced extreme amounts of snow. In Great Falls, they broke a 100 year old daily record, and seasonal snowfall was 3 feet above normal. Montana has experienced periods of heavy rainstorms and local flooding, but this is not a common occurrence; similarly, the state has also had tornadoes, but they too are not frequent, and when they do happen, they tend not to be very intense.

Answer 2

The areas in Montana that typically receive the most snowfall are the southwest mountains, including areas around Missoula and Butte. These regions experience heavier snowfall due to their higher elevations and proximity to moist air coming from the Pacific Ocean.

Answer 3

I live in Bozeman MT, and it's common to not see the lawn between late November and April. Some parts of Montana are very dry, but it snows pretty much everywhere here.
