Glasgow, Montana – Windy, wet weather will kick off the weekend in northeast Montana, as Friday brings a 70% chance of showers and wind gusts up to 20 mph in Glasgow.

According to the National Weather Service, showers are expected to begin midday Friday, with east-northeast winds increasing to 13 mph and gusts as high as 20 mph. The temperature will top out near 82°F, but the breeze and rainfall could make it feel cooler by afternoon. Motorists along US-2 should plan for reduced visibility and slippery roads by midday, especially during heavier showers.

The system won’t stop there — additional rain and isolated thunderstorms are likely Saturday afternoon, with stronger winds reaching up to 24 mph out of the north. While Sunday may bring a brief break in the precipitation, temperatures will fall noticeably, with highs only reaching the low 60s.

Anyone heading outdoors this weekend should secure loose items, check drainage systems, and avoid unnecessary travel during peak rainfall. It’s also a good time to inspect windshield wipers and pack rain gear for road trips or camping.
