There are going to be some scattered showers and thunderstorms around tonight, especially after midnight, as a cold front begins to approach our area. The wind is also going to pick up tonight along and just east of the Continental Divide. It is also going to feel nice outside tonight as lows are going to be in the 50s and low 60s in most locations.
There are then going to be scattered showers and thunderstorms around tomorrow as this cold front passes through our area, and this precipitation will gradually work its way eastward as the day goes on. Some showers will also redevelop later on tomorrow behind the cold front along the Rocky Mountain Front and around Glacier National Park. We are also going to have partly cloudy skies tomorrow.
It is also going to be cooler tomorrow than it was today as highs are going to be in the mid to upper 60s and low 70s in most locations (mid to upper 70s and low 80s in northeastern Montana). We are also going to have gusty winds around tomorrow 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. A few gusts up to 60 mph are also possible tomorrow along the Rocky Mountain Front.
On Thursday, we are going to have partly cloudy skies with a few scattered showers and thunderstorms around, especially in the mountains. It is also going to be cool again on Thursday as highs are going to be in the 60s in most locations. We are also going to have gusty winds around again on Thursday, especially in locations east of I-15 and along the Hi-Line, 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.
It is then going to be warmer on Friday and Saturday than it is going to be tomorrow and Thursday as highs are going to be in the 70s and low 80s in most locations.

We are also going to have mostly sunny skies and dry conditions on Friday and partly to mostly cloudy skies with some isolated showers and thunderstorms around on Saturday.
There are then going to be scattered showers and some thunderstorms around on Sunday and Monday as an upper-level trough is going to be in control of our weather. Some more scattered showers and thunderstorms are then possible on Tuesday. There is also going to be some mountain snow around on Monday and Tuesday. We are also going to have partly to mostly cloudy skies on these three days.
On Sunday, we are going to have a wide range of temperatures as highs are going to range from the mid 50s to the mid 80s, with the coolest temperatures in locations near the Rockies and the warmest temperatures in eastern Montana. It is then going to be mild in northeastern Montana on Monday and Tuesday as highs are going to range from the upper 60s to the low 80s, and it is going to be cool in central and north-central Montana on Monday and Tuesday as highs are going to be in the 50s and low to mid 60s.
