It's Dumping In Montana RIGHT NOW | Up To 8" Of Snow Expected! [Photo Tour]

With temperatures dipping below freezing in many parts of the US, skiers and snowboarders across North America are putting away the Chacos in exchange for a block of wax and and an edger.

And if you live in Montana, you might want to consider investing in a few candles of P-tex also as well. With skiers in the Big Sky state already scoring turns this past week, the September skiing trend is set to continue this week as snow continues to fall today on various parts of Montana and north-eastern Wyoming today.

Specifically, Ski Showdown is boasting some high snowfall totals and the Montana ski area has already hosted a Trump/Hillary snowball fight in addition to some dedicated grass skiing.
