Unsettled Weather This Week
Montana is looking at an unsettled weather pattern over the next few days. Right now the jet stream is pushing several Pacific systems through the area bringing an array of rain and snow showers through the area through Wednesday. Highs will stay within reach of average which is near 50°. Winds will be the biggest impact though as we deal with westerly winds that could gust between 25-40 mph through Wednesday evening.
Temperatures are expected to climb to near 70° Thursday and Friday before another Pacific system ushers cooler air and scattered rain showers back in place for the weekend.
