.KEY MESSAGES...

.DISCUSSION...

Look for dry and seasonable weather to continue on Thursday before

an upper trough approaches the region to finish out the week along

with a surface cold front. Ensembles continue to keep much of the

QPF southwest of the CWA. Thus, will maintain a dry forecast for

now.



Over the weekend, upper ridging looks to rebound with dry weather

conditions and warming temperatures. Highs across NE Montana for

Sunday will reach into the 50s and 60s. This will be short lived

however, as the next cold front will bring in breezy conditions

Sunday night and cooler temperatures for Monday.



FORECAST CONFIDENCE & DEVIATIONS:



NBM held the line for this forecast cycle with mostly dry weather

conditions and little in the way of major temperature swings, save

for warmer temperatures on Sunday. Therefore, little in the way in

deviation was needed.
