Strong upper level winds developed across the northern Rockies ahead of a couple low pressure troughs entering the region. The first crossed the Pacific Northwest with strong mid-level winds across the Rockies and adjacent plains. At lower levels, the cold front came across the Canadian border Sunday bringing snow to much of Central Montana. The second trough crossed the Canadian border Monday along with a second push of moisture and very cold air.
