Скачать или смотреть Montana Snowpack Update & Drought Outlook | Will Next Week’s Pacific Storm Deliver?

In this week’s Weather Wednesday, we take another look at Montana’s snowpack and how it compares to this time last year — and why it matters.

We also break down the latest drought outlook for the state and what forecasters are anticipating heading into the late winter stretch.

A weak cold front moves into the Pacific Northwest this weekend, bringing a chance for light moisture, a wintry mix, and mountain snow to western Montana. Central and eastern Montana stay dry and above average for now.

The bigger story? A stronger system expected Tuesday into Wednesday next week. An area of low pressure curling off the South Pacific could send some much-needed moisture our way. Models are still uncertain on track and impact, but we’re watching it closely.

Stay tuned as we continue to track snowpack, drought conditions, and what’s ahead for Montana.
