There is a risk of strong to severe thunderstorms this afternoon and evening over portions of Montana and Wyoming. Strong wind gusts, hail, and heavy rain are the primary threats.
Chances for showers and thunderstorms each afternoon and evening continue through Thursday. A pattern change starting Friday is expected to bring hot and dry conditions.
Confidence is increasing for a weather pattern that supports hot temperatures by next weekend. The 6-10 day temperature outlook shows a 60-80% chance of above normal temperatures in our region from July 11 to 15. Triple digit heat is possible.
Don’t wait until heat arrives to begin protecting yourself. If the forecast calls for extreme heat, begin preparing NOW. https://www.weather.gov/safety/heat
