WEATHER DISCUSSION: The weekend kicked off on a hot and high note, those highs being in the upper 70’s and 80’s throughout Montana. Don’t get rid of those sunglasses and shades just yet however, because the highs for Sunday and Monday are continuing on an upward trend into the 90’s. With sunny to mainly sunny skies all weekend, it’s the perfect opportunity to enjoy the mostly quiet and pleasant weather.
While today and tomorrow with see a few isolated showers and thunderstorms moving through the area, the precipitation won’t really return until Monday, where windier conditions and more widespread showers are in the forecast. Most of the weekend will likely see calm, light, and slightly breezy wind conditions but gusts up to 20 and 30 mph are possible for the beginning half of the upcoming work week.
Upper level troughing and unsettled weather moves through the area for the rest of the upcoming week, so expect continued hot daily highs into the 70’s and 80’s and precipitation.
