.DISCUSSION...

KEY MESSAGES:

- Temperatures cool over the weekend to slightly above normal.

- No significant precipitation is expected over the next week.

WEATHER PATTERN OVERVIEW:

A surface cold front is approaching this morning, which will bring
a round of gusty west winds and a slight chance for measurable
rain showers this afternoon. A Lake Wind Advisory remains in
effect for Fort Peck Lake through 5PM. Mostly cloudy skies today
will limit warming compared to yesterday, after an unseasonably
mild start. The focus for lingering light rain and snow showers
tonight will be over north central Montana into Phillips county.

With a more zonal flow over the next week, temperatures will be
moderated and cool closer to normal levels. Moisture transport
will be limited as a series of shortwaves move through, most
notably Monday into Tuesday with broad chances for light rain and
snow focused south of the area.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE & DEVIATIONS:

Made deviations to winds and wind gusts through this evening to
blend in higher resolution and 90th percentile guidance for the
frontal passage. Confidence is high for the temperature pattern
and medium for there being little measurable precipitation over
the next week, following some increased agreement among ensemble
members.
