Thats a trick question. There are parts of MT that get fresh snow about 11 months a year. This ain't one of them. Its supposed to hit 91 today in Missoula, and the range isn't too much higher. So I would say there is about a 0% chance of snow bothering our match. More likely to have a 'sweat dripping in an old rangers eyes' type of issue.

Yeah I wish we had some of that here in Missoula. 92 yesterday and supposed to be hotter today. Feels like I'm in Arizona, well, Arizona in the winter, but still!

Maybe you will get lucky and a couple of feet of snow will fall!

Then you can go snowboarding! \m/

Cold and rain forecast for the weekend. From director Mike. Labor day is the start of fall in the north country.

High everyone,

Just a couple last minute announcements for you.

Bring your rain gear and cold weather gear.
We are going to be down in the high 30s to low 40s each morning when we start.
Highs will only get to around 70 on Saturday and only 55 on Sunday with rain forecast in the afternoon.
