.DISCUSSION...
The persistent western states summer monsoon influence combines
with a stagnant flow pattern over eastern Montana, to allow for
some scattered rain showers and a few isolated thunderstorms.
Most of these are small and short-lived with minimal impact,
although a brief heavy downpour and an errant lightning strike
cannot be ruled out this afternoon. By this evening, most of the
active weather conditions will shift away toward the southeast.
