less than an inch of light snow(dusting) is forecast with this
disturbance across far northeast Montana. Most other locations
will remain dry.

Above normal temperatures are expected after tonight as a ridge
builds into the area. At this point, Thursday appears to be the
warmest day as a dry cold front Thursday night will bring slightly
cooler temperatures on Friday that will still be 10 to 15 degrees
above normal. The above normal temperatures continue into next

potential hydrology concerns since Wednesday night has above

Through 00Z Tuesday, there is low to moderate confidence (20 to 40
percent) of a wintry mix, which includes freezing rain or drizzle
occurring with these conditions. MVFR ceilings should clear the
area after about 18Z Tuesday.

WIND: Light and variable through mid morning. Then W to NW and
increasing to 10 to 20kts in the late morning through the
