A mid-level low pressure center moved over the Montana/Idaho/Wyoming border bringing good synoptic lift and good moisture. Wrap-around, easterly flow to the north of the low pressure center provided up-slope flow with most precipitation centered over Central and
Southwest Montana. A trailing upper level disturbance moving through western Canada resulted in the development of a surface trof, and associated high winds, along the lee side of the Northern Rockies.
