This is the first snow since before Thanksgiving here in the high plains of Central Montana and it is most welcome!
As I type this the conditions outside are quite harsh. The winds predicted with this storm have materialized and are really howling!
We'll see how bad the drifts are later today. If the snow accumulations follow as predicted, it could make for some interesting riding.
NAISME & mtessmer, its headed your way!
D'OH!! The snow storm that is treating you so well seemed to bypass Spokane on each side. We got a mear dusting today. This is a bummer dude.
