I've heard of this "Lake Effect Snow." I'm glad I live where you can see the other sides of the lakes and where we have REAL mountains.

I remember Billings to be rather flat with rolling grass foot hills, you do have the Beartooth Mountain Range, but they are not really in Billings, and they are no larger than the hills behind my backyard.
Where are these "Real" mountains that you speek of.
