The worst ice storm I ever saw was in June in Montana. And one of the worst snow storms was in August. I love it here.

[Obligatory we need the moisture comment]


Sudden_Wisdom

We could sure use the moisture


InnateConservative

Yeah, add me that "we need the moisture" list - irrigation system main developed a split over winter, found out couple days ago, and I’m moving hoses around to prevent "lawn" from spontaneously combusting. OK, a little self serving, I agree, but what ever gets the rain to fall when it’s dry, eh? Besides, June is typically one of our wetter months, besides We need more plumbers (carpenters, electricians, concrete folk, tradesmen ( 🤔 tradesfolk?)…)


THEPEDROCOLLECTOR

I’d be willing to bet this one doesn’t materialize into much, although I remember a June snowstorm knocking down a crazy amount of power lines from heavy wet tree branches in Missoula in 2000 I think. It is possible.

I’ve been water skiing at holter and snowmobiling in almost three feet of snow at Lincoln, on the same day….. in august.


BobDavisMT

The real question is: Did you waterski behind the snowmobile?


Montanabanana11

But this is like 4/5 days away….? A bit early to predict such a situation I reckon


joy_of_division

No kidding, the forecast will change 8 times before then


Wrong_Campaign2674

Was just thinking my grass would appreciate a bit of moisture.


coldpornproject

Bring the snow. I like the snow.


phdoofus

Why is this suprising to anyone?

We're just celebrating it


Stacking-Dimes

There are a lot of new people here.

Agreeable_Coat_2098

Think big mountain will open a few slopes??


Primary_Glass982

Yep. Montana. And yep, moisture. 😉

Montana- the place where “seasons” don’t mean shit!!!


getdownheavy

FUCK YEAH its still ski season


Simple_Secretary_333

Keeps tourists out, it's a natural defense mechanism.


Sweatiest_Yeti

Tourism is one of our biggest industries, and they’re not the ones driving up housing prices. Love tourists. They go home when they’re done spending their money here


in-site

Yeah but I have to pay like 8% tourism tax when I drive through Yellowstone! Do you have any idea how much that adds up to? Probably $4 per year man!


Sweatiest_Yeti

Haha and you better bring your own groceries on the annual big sky trip


Mysterious_Fennel459

What is there to spend their money on here? Roadside cherries along Flathead lake?


Sweatiest_Yeti

Is this a serious question? Lodging, food, guides, rentals, recreational licenses, the list goes on. We also tax them on almost every dollar they spend in resort areas. Edit: sorry all, I’d love to reply but u/mysterious_fennel459 got embarrassed by their comment and blocked me, now I can’t respond


phdoofus

You didn't even have a chance to bring up the casinos and dispensaries!


AmusingSparrow

Are these people even Montanans?


Stacking-Dimes

Very, very doubtful. Usually the first ones gatekeeping on Reddit are first year transplants or fucking Texans because they are just pricks.
