considerable variation in geography topography and elevation and the climate is equally varied the state spans from below the 45th parallel the line equidistant between the equator and north pole to the 49th parallel and elevations range from under 2 000 feet 610 m to nearly 13 000 feet 4 000 m above sea level the western half is mountainous interrupted by numerous large valleys eastern montana comprises plains and badlands broken by hills and isolated mountain ranges and has a semi arid continental climate köppen climate classification bsk the continental divide has a considerable effect on the climate as it restricts the flow of warmer air from the pacific from moving east and drier continental air from moving west the area west of the divide has a modified northern pacific coast climate with milder winters cooler summers less wind and a longer growing season 175 low clouds and fog often form in the valleys west of the divide in winter but this is rarely seen in the east 176 average daytime temperatures vary from 28 f or 2 2 c in january to 84 5 f or 29 2 c in july 177 verification needed the variation in geography leads to great variation in temperature the highest observed summer temperature was 117 f or 47 2 c at glendive on july 20 1893 and medicine lake on july 5 1937 throughout the state summer nights are generally cool and pleasant extreme hot weather is less common above 4 000 feet or 1 200 meters 175 snowfall has been recorded in all months of the year in the more mountainous areas of central and western montana though it is rare in july and august 175 the coldest temperature on record for montana is also the coldest temperature for the contiguous united states on january 20 1954 70 f or 56 7 c was recorded at a gold mining camp near rogers pass temperatures vary greatly on cold nights and helena 40 miles 64 km to the southeast had a low of only 36 f or 37 8 c on the same date and an all time record low of 42 f or 41 1 c 175 winter cold spells are usually the result of cold continental air coming south from canada the front is often well defined causing a large temperature drop in a 24 hour period conversely air flow from the southwest results in chinooks these steady 25 50 mph 40 80 km h or more winds can suddenly warm parts of montana especially areas just to the east of the mountains where temperatures sometimes rise up to 50 60 f 10 0 15 6 c for 10 days or longer 175 178 loma is the site of the most extreme recorded temperature change in a 24 hour period in the united states on january 15 1972 a chinook wind blew in and the temperature rose from 54 to 49 f 47 8 to 9 4 c a 103 f 57 2 c degree difference 179 clark fork river missoula in autumn average annual precipitation is 15 inches 380 mm but great variations are seen the mountain ranges block the moist pacific air holding moisture in the western valleys and creating rain shadows to the east heron in the west receives the most precipitation 34 70 inches 881 mm on the eastern leeward side of a mountain range the valleys are much drier lonepine averages 11 45 inches 291 mm and deer lodge 11 00 inches 279 mm of precipitation the mountains can receive over 100 inches 2 500 mm for example the grinnell glacier in glacier national park gets 105 inches 2 700 mm 176 an area southwest of belfry averaged only 6 59 inches 167 mm over a 16 year period most of the larger cities get 30 to 50 inches or 0 76 to 1 27 meters of snow each year mountain ranges can accumulate 300 inches or 7 62 meters of snow during a winter heavy snowstorms may occur from september through may though most snow falls from november to march 175 the climate has become warmer in montana with the average temperature rising almost 2 5 f 1 3 c since 1900 at a rate higher than the continental u s average and continues to do so 180 the glaciers in glacier national park have receded and are predicted to melt away completely in a few decades 181 many montana cities set heat records during july 2007 the hottest month ever recorded in montana 182 183 winters are warmer too and have fewer cold spells previously these cold spells had killed off bark beetles but these are now attacking the forests of western montana 184 185 the warmer winters in the region have allowed various species to expand their ranges and proliferate 186 the combination of warmer weather attack by beetles and mismanagement has led to a substantial increase in the severity of forest fires in montana 182 185 according to a study done for the u s environmental protection agency by the harvard school of engineering and applied science parts of montana will experience a 200 increase in area burned by wildfires and an 80 increase in related air pollution 187 188 the table below lists average
