What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this winter storm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Great Falls, MT wrote its last area forecast discussion before this winter storm warning went out at Nov 1, 2:38 PM MDT, 7 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Nov 1, 2:38 PM MDT, 7 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Great Falls MT 238 PM MDT Wed Nov 1 2017 .SYNOPSIS... Low pressure exiting into the Dakotas tonight will result in decreasing precipitation across north central and southwest Montana this evening with a cold airmass now in place. The next weather system to impact the region will develop off the British Columbia coast Thursday morning with snow re-developing over the Rockies ahead of this system. Snow will increase again across the rest of north central and southwest Montana Thursday night through Friday night as the weather system gradually moves inland. && .DISCUSSION... Tonight through Thursday...Widespread snow across central and northern portions of SW MT will gradually diminish this evening as favorable upper level jet dynamics shift south of the forecast area and baroclinic zone/mid level convergence across the region weakens. Cold and moist airmass remains across the region tonight into Thursday for considerable low level cloudiness and some flurries or light snow showers persisting. Next wave of energy rotating around the large scale trough over western Canada drops south across Vancouver Island tonight and slowly turns inland into the Pacific NW Thursday. This will focus a plume of moisture into NW MT Thursday. In addition to the increasing Pacific moisture across NW MT, cold air will remain in place east of the Rockies with low level easterly upslope flow supporting the re- development of snow along the Rocky Mtn front by Thursday morning and continuing though the day. Ongoing set of winter weather highlights looks on track to expire this evening as the 1st round of precipitation wanes. A new winter storm warning will be issued for the Rocky Mtn Front zones to highlight the next round of snow beginning there Thursday morning. Hoenisch Thursday night through Sunday...A mid- to upper-level disturbance over and near Vancouver Island at the start of this period will move generally eastward and cross our CWA on Saturday. Behind this disturbance, shortwave high pressure ridging will build-in from the west Saturday evening into Sunday. At the surface, models are in better agreement that a front over the far-southern part of Southwest MT should move little through early Saturday morning as warm advection occurs south of the front, while an arctic high pressure ridge builds into North-Central MT from western Canada. Later on Saturday, this front should advance eastward and southward as a cold front due to the passage of the aforementioned shortwave trough and further building of the arctic ridge. This surface ridge should then blanket the entire CWA on Sunday. The aforementioned surface front will act as a focus for precipitation Thursday night through most of Saturday. In addition, isentropic lift along this front and ahead of the shortwave trough from the Pac NW should allow precipitation to become more widespread over much of our region Thursday night through Saturday morning. During the same time frame, easterly low-level upslope flow along the Rocky Mountain Front should boost precipitation rates there. North of the stationary front, a colder airmass should support just snow, while a rain/snow mix is still forecast in the somewhat warmer air south of the front. However, as the boundary transitions into a cold front, any mixed precipitation should change to snow. Precipitation probabilities then decrease, overall, later Saturday into Sunday as high pressure ridging gains firm control over the CWA. Below-normal temperatures are forecast during the period, with the coldest readings over North-Central MT. Snow totals for Thursday night through Sunday look to range from several inches on the plains and the deeper Southwest MT valleys to 1-2 feet for most of our mountains, including the Rocky Mountain Front, Central MT ranges, and the Southwest MT ranges. Will let future shifts evaluate the need to expand our winter weather highlights for this additional snowfall. Jaszka Sunday Night through Wednesday...Models start in good agreement Sunday evening with a longwave trough over the PacNW with very subtle ridging across central Montana. Models completely diverge by early Monday until mid- to late week. Assuming the longwave trough lifts to the east across our region, it would seem likely conditions will be favorable for light overrunning snow to develop Sunday night into Monday, while a cold front moves across southwest Montana, which may produce a brief, but a bit heavier, snow band, with the potential for minor accumulations. A warming trend then commences with increasing southwest flow would then likely bring some increasing winds for Tuesday. A digging longwave trough over the PacNW toward mid-week would likely begin pushing moisture our way, especially near and along the Continental Divide. CC && .AVIATION... Updated 1733Z. Area of moderate to locally heavy snow continues to sink south across central MT through early this afternoon, impacting KHLN and KBZN terminals with IFR to at times LIFR cigs and visibility. To the north of this area snow showers and low ceilings continue but visibility is not as persistently poor, though IFR conditions will likely prevail at KGTF and KLWT and occasionally at the KCTB terminal through this afternoon. Coverage and intensity of snow will decrease significantly this evening, but low clouds will persist with only slight improvement to flight conditions under continued low cloud ceilings with Mtn obscuration.
