NWS Forecast Office Billings, MT

Frost and freeze conditions are likely late this weekend into early next week. Consider preparations to protect sensitive vegetation.

Windy conditions return to the area starting this evening, with brisk conditions expected into Monday.

The chance of precipitation returns this afternoon into Tuesday as a dynamic spring weather system moves through the region. There is a chance for more impactful weather systems to develop over the mountains and foothills and near the Dakota border. Currently, on the low end (more likely scenario), the foothills will see a few tenths of an inch of precipitation and the east will see generally less than one tenth. On the high end (less likely scenario), the foothills will see half to three quarters of an inch and the east around half an inch.

Mountain snow returns to the region this evening into Tuesday. As temperatures fall, the foothills may light accumulations of wet snow. The best chance will be for locations above 3500 feet.
