The wider storm

A surface low developed near the Canadian border in Alberta and tracked eastward, propelling a cold front through the region during the day on April 27. Most wind gusts remained below high wind criteria, but once the front made it into SW MT n-s oriented valleys, a few isolated stronger gusts occurred.
