Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeAn extended period of extreme cold developed over western Montana in early December. It was the coldest air mass in more than 4 years to affect the region. A secondary push of arctic air, much colder than the first, moved into the region late Thursday, Dec. 5 and Dec. 6, which helped to bring gusty winds, and very low wind chills to canyon and mountain gap locations. Flathead Lake and nearby shores saw lake effect snow activity develop on Dec. 4 and continue through Dec. 8, bringing anywhere from a trace up to 10 inches of snow.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeThe Mullan Pass sensor reported -20 to -34 wind chill values with an average wind speed of 8 mph. The -34 F value was observed at 6:53 MST on Dec. 7 when the air temperature was -13 F and the wind speed was 12.7 mph.
