A HIGH WIND WATCH has been issued for the Northern Rocky Mountain Front and Eastern Glacier that will go into effect tomorrow afternoon until Wednesday morning.
Saturday's winds were not the only thing that was served; some areas reached record highs. Hurricane winds blew north off the Rocky Mountain Front Saturday, and the gust was in the triple digits. The powerful winds caused; grassland fires, power outages, and highway closures. As of this morning, the highways have been reopened, but some areas are still experiencing power outages. Lewistown, Great Falls, Helena, and Bozeman reached record highs, but; as of last night, seasonable temperatures returned. The morning wake-up temperatures are in the single digits and teens. Areas of light snow showers will continue to fall southwest of the state but will diminish this afternoon. The high temperatures will be in the 20s and the mid to lower 30s. The overnight temperatures will remain well below freezing. Tomorrow will be mostly sunny, and the wind will return. Wednesday will be mostly cloudy with slightly warmer temperatures. Late-night Wednesday, a minor system will produce a mix of rain/snow showers that will carry on until Thursday.
Enjoy your day,
