Good morning! I'm Aaron Jolly, and welcome to the Montana Weather Podcast. It's Saturday, February 17th. Folks, Montana woke up with a temperature spread wide enough to drive a cattle herd through. Central Montana is sitting at minus 2 right now. That's the kind of cold where your nostril hairs freeze on the first breath. Head west and it's a balmy 16 degrees. Eastern Montana splits the difference at 12 degrees. Here's the thing. We're gaining almost 3 minutes of daylight today. Sunrise hit at 6:32 this morning. Sunset rolls in at 5:19. You can feel February tipping toward spring, even if the thermometer disagrees. Air quality is moderate, so take it easy if you're sensitive. Tonight the real cold settles in. Central Montana could drop to minus 10. That's frostbite territory in under 30 minutes. Western and eastern regions dip into single digits. ...
