Montana experiences a significant rain and snow storm improving outlooks amidst dry winter concerns.

A significant rain and snow storm in Montana has improved outlooks, but concerns persist due to the state's dry winter. The widespread storm is a "game-changer" and a "season-changing event" for some areas, bringing much-needed moisture to soils. However, it's still too early to determine how much of the water will sustain streams, crops, and forests during the hot months ahead. Montana faces long odds of seeing normal streamflows this summer or eliminating drought entirely.
