Watching the ball drop in New York is fun. But to bring in the New Year with a bang, Great Falls bars are getting the party started Saturday night. (break) The Flamingo AKA “Dirty Bird” has $5 all-you-can-drink champagne, free hats, free lays…”And that might be the closest...

Thursday, December 29, 2011

Another very windy day in Great Falls! It sure seems like this has been the windiest, non-snowiest, warmest December I’ve ever had in Great Falls. So how windy is Great Falls overall? The Tribune says we are the 4th-windiest city in the nation. FunTrivia – citing NOAA – says that Great Falls ranks at #7. This site also reports that Great Falls is #7. City-Data reports that Great Falls is #12, although there’s no cite. WindEnergy ranks Great Falls...
