I was looking out our radio studio windows this morning, and I thought- this can't be good. Wet roads. Now snow. And a deep freeze right around the corner here in Montana.
It seems that, for the weekend, we are done with the snow. But that doesn't mean the cold is leaving, far from it actually. Don't put your winter coat away.
You better get used to afternoon showers and thunderstorms for the next several days, with the current forecast predicting a stretch of wet and stormy days for Billings.
The National Weather Service reports that over 200 lightning strikes in the western Montana area late Friday resulted in numerous small fires being battled over the weekend.
Temperatures are expected to be in the mid-90s on Tuesday (6/28) around Yellowstone County, and that could be fuel to fire up some severe thunderstorms.
Some portions of Yellowstone County could get a significant amount of snow accumulation this weekend, with another spring storm bringing whiteout conditions to parts of Montana.
