COMET Case Study 029: Montana Fire Weather-Dry Cold Front 1999 Data at UCAR/JOSS/NOAA/CODIAC
Entry ID:
COMET029_UCAR_JOSS_NOAA_CODIAC
Summary
Abstract:
A dry cold front passed through eastern Montana on 31 October 1999
bringing in a strong northwest wind behind it. Warmer and drier than normal conditions existed in the region at this time, so with the addition of strong wind, the fire danger rose greatly. Sustained winds of 50+ knots and gusts to near 80 knots were reported in eastern Montana, driving fires near the towns of Outlook and Wolf Point. Over $12 million in damages are estimated statewide from the strong wind and fires. For more information, see: http://data.eol.ucar.edu/codiac/projs?COMET_CASE_029
