The wider storm

An upper level trough passed across the Northern Rockies September 11, which allowed for numerous thunderstorms to develop in the afternoon. Thermodynamic and kinematic ingredients were sufficient for a few strong thunderstorms, mostly across Southwest Montana. Additionally, a series of thunderstorms moved across the Horse Gulch burn scar, which resulted in flash flooding.

Began near Belgrade (45.7800, -111.1700).
