High Wind in Toole, Montana
High Wind February 10, 2022 · Toole, Montana
What the National Weather Service wrote
Mesonet sensor at the Shelby Airport recorded a wind gust to 71 mph. Other stations in the area also reported high winds.
The wider storm
A strong pressure gradient developed along the Rocky Mountain Front, which resulted in strong, gusty winds to develop and spread across the plains. This was helped by a stable layer near the top of the mountains, which helped to promote the downward transfer of winds from mountaintop levels to the plains.
