.DISCUSSION...

KEY MESSAGES:

1) A few flurries and light rain showers are expected through a
portion of today.

2) Warmer weather and mainly dry conditions are expected this
weekend into next week.

 WEATHER PATTERN OVERVIEW:

Although skies are fairly clear, a quick moving disturbance will
bring a low probability of flurries and light rain to the area
through the mid afternoon hours. Little to no accumulation is
expected with this activity. This weekend, upper ridging will
begin building in across the Pacific shore with drier and warmer
weather conditions reaching eastern Montana. Ensembles show
temperatures eventually reaching into the 50s and 60s for highs
next week.

A couple of shortwave troughs are expected to move in on Monday
night through Wednesday. There is low to moderate (20 to 40
percent) confidence of rain showers and a possible rumble of
thunder with this activity. There is low confidence on
accumulating precipitation occurring.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE & DEVIATIONS:

Manually brought temperatures down north of HWY 2 into this
morning due to mainly clear skies and light winds occurring. Also
added PoPs manually to a portion of northeast Montana due to the
CAMs agreeing on light precipitation chances today.
