Montana wakes to headlights glowing through thin fog and cold air biting at exposed skin.
Patchy freezing fog hangs over Glasgow this morning, reducing visibility and leaving slick spots on untreated roads. Temperatures hover near 30 degrees, and wind chills dip into the mid-20s. Thin ice can form quickly on bridges, ramps, and shaded streets.
By midmorning, fog gradually lifts. Sunshine breaks through, but caution remains necessary early. Winds increase later today, gusting near 20 mph, helping dry some pavement. Highs reach the low 40s, enough to melt frost but not erase all hazards. Drivers should remain alert, especially along U.S. Route 2 and local county roads.
Tonight turns mostly cloudy with lows near 29 degrees. Refreezing becomes a concern as melted moisture hardens again. Flash freezing may catch evening drivers off guard.
Saturday trends milder. Clouds thin, and highs climb near 49 degrees. Winds stay breezy, aiding road drying. Saturday night cools to around 30 degrees, setting up another freeze cycle.
Sunday brings a noticeable warm-up. Highs surge into the mid-50s, feeling more like early spring. Snowmelt accelerates, creating wet pavement by afternoon. A slight chance of rain arrives Sunday night as temperatures stay above freezing.
Early next week turns more unsettled. Monday brings a 40 percent chance of rain, with highs near 41 degrees. A brief rain-freezing rain mix Monday night remains possible as temperatures fall to the low 20s. Even light icing could impact late travel.
Tuesday steadies with sunshine and highs near 39 degrees. Looking into the 6–10 day trend, above-normal temperatures dominate, signaling a broader thaw across Montana.
Plan extra time this morning, and watch for icy shine on pavement. Are roads slick where you are? Share what you’re seeing in your area.
