WEATHER DISCUSSION: Sunday saw drier and breezy conditions, though the precipitation isn’t over yet. With highs in the upper 50’s and 60’s and lows in the 30’s and 40’s, the temperatures will begin to decrease through the rest of this week. Surface winds remain though below High Wind criteria. An unsettled weather pattern resumes Monday as a cold front crosses the region bringing more gusty winds and widespread coverage of showers and a few thunderstorms.
A potentially colder and wetter system moves through Tuesday night through Wednesday night which is shaping up to be the most impactful stretch. An upper-level disturbance helps spread rain and snow across the region. A Winter Storm Watch is in effect for the East Glacier Park Region given the potential impacts. More snow accumulation will be found in the mountainous regions, and that along with the gusty conditions prompted the winter weather highlights. Expect unsettled conditions to continue throughout the rest of the week and possibly onto the weekend.
