Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Wrn Montana and N Cntrl Idaho
National Weather Service Missoula MT
439 AM MDT Tue May 21 2013
.DISCUSSION...Strong south to southeast winds will occur today,
beginning fairly early and increasing later in the afternoon.
Gusts could be strong at times, especially across central Idaho
and southwest Montana. Winds should see a decrease by nightfall,
just as precipitation from the upcoming cut off low pressure
system begins to take affect. Rain will impact central Idaho
overnight, then spread further into west central and northwest
Montana. Thunderstorms are also likely to be embedded within the
showers. Snow levels will take a nose dive, causing light snow to
be likely on elevations above 6000 feet. Heavier rainfall is then
expected Wednesday night into Thursday, as a nearly stationary
band of precip sets up across northwest Montana, affecting this
region most heavily.
