For tomorrow, we are going to have partly to mostly cloudy skies with some scattered rain and snow showers around, generally during the afternoon and evening, as a disturbance begins to work its way through our area. In the lower elevations, most of the precipitation tomorrow is going to be in the form of rain, but some snow and graupel may mix in with this rain at times. In the higher elevations, the precipitation tomorrow is primarily going to be in the form of snow. We are also going to have gusty winds around tomorrow, especially during the afternoon and evening, as sustained wind speeds are going to be between 10 and 30 mph, and wind gusts over 40 mph are going to be possible at times. Seasonable temperatures are also expected tomorrow as highs are going to be in the mid to upper 40s and low to mid 50s in most locations.

On Sunday, we are going to have increasing clouds with some isolated rain and snow showers around. It is also going to be warmer on Sunday than it is going to be tomorrow as highs are going to be in the 50s and low 60s.

We are then going to have mostly cloudy skies on Monday with a chance of lower elevation rain and higher elevation snow in north-central Montana as a cold front begins to approach our area.
