Over the weekend, a storm blew across Montana that brought several inches of heavy, wet snow to many areas. It should help with incredibly dry conditions that much of the state is suffering from. We endured terrible winds for two days prior to the storm, so for about four days we had dark, heavy, gray skies. I noticed what a foul mood I was in on Day 4 of the clouds. Though I was grateful for the precipitation, I felt down, had low energy, and was generally cranky. The next day, I woke up to blue skies and the clouds quickly dissipated as the morning marched on. I noticed a definite mood improvement and found it quite striking.
