OM said: I think it was Mr. Dylan that said “You don’t need a weatherman to tell which the wind blows”.
I believe that was a reference to the ‘weathermen underground’ during the 1970s, not weather forecasting. The “wind” was a reference to the WH decisions regarding the Viet Nam bs and domestic responses to anti war protests.

You have included "warm", "June" and "Montana" in the same sentence. You can have any two, but not three of those together. It snowed 14" in Great Falls last week.
I'll take "Montana" and "warm" then.

The last time I was within sight of Boise it was 106 and we turned north and headed up hill to Stanley. That was probably inn July though. I do know it was a lot cooler in Fargo than Boise.

We drove to Great Falls today. Went to Malmstrom, AFB to go to the commissary and also went to a Farm and Ranch store called North 40. 55 degrees, sunny with light winds. The good news is that a second North 40 has opened about a half mile from the Expo Park rally site. These are huge stores that carry just about everything one could imagine.

Rural King is the Midwest/Mid-Atlantic version. Thankfully, they seem to have a policy of repurposing vacant "Big Box" or mall anchor store locations. That's a big benefit for the communities saddled with these hulks.

On a slightly smaller scale, Alpine, Texas had an Alco store until it folded. Then it became a Shopco Hometown store until they folded. Then it became a Tractor Supply store which is a huge improvement over either of the other two and is more likely to stay in business too.

Well, when the apocalypse comes I am going to barricade myself in a North 40. They have everything one could ever need in there to survive for several years. Of course, I'll have to eat prepper rations or what I can grow. What they do not have can be fabricated with what they do. They are, like everyone else, short on ammo, but I can bring my own, if I have to, I guess. Bet Fargo does not have one.... Great Falls has two.
Tractor Supply has 1844 stores in 49 states.

I guess that rules out Fargo for the time being.
Nah! Fargo has a Tractor Supply.

TS is not nearly big enough to survive as a holdout when the SHIF. I'm with akbeemer that a place like North 40 is what's needed. You will need lots of supplies and a defensible perimeter.

If they allowed camping around back... we could hold a Rally there. Bet there's even a receptacle for the CPAP folks!
and “bucks up” migrating people from the cities, now working from “home”.

A lot of Walmarts still allow overnight camping, but do the North 40's sell beer?
