National Weather Service Billings MT
124 AM MDT Fri Aug 21 2026

.DISCUSSION...

Hot and mostly dry conditions expected again today. Breezy
east to northeast winds should be expected for many areas during
the afternoon. While temperatures remain hot this weekend,
increased atmospheric moisture will result in somewhat higher
relative humidity readings. The chance of showers and
thunderstorms returns this weekend (25 to 50 percent chance,
greatest over the mountains). Conditions trend slightly cooler and
drier next week, though an occasional chance of precipitation
remains. BT
