Glasgow, MT – Fall sunshine will dominate today and Thursday, but a shift arrives Friday as light showers return to northeast Montana. Residents should prepare for breezier, cooler conditions heading into the weekend.
According to the National Weather Service, Glasgow will see a high near 80 degrees Wednesday with light winds. Thursday continues sunny and calm, with highs near 79. By Friday, however, clouds increase and scattered showers may develop. Winds will turn from the northeast at 6 to 10 mph, making outdoor activities less comfortable.
Drivers traveling along U.S. Highway 2 through Valley County should plan for reduced visibility during light showers on Friday. While rainfall amounts appear minor, damp roads and gusts up to 20 mph may affect travel safety. Locals decorating for Halloween or planning early fall festivals may want to use Thursday’s sunshine before wetter weather arrives.

- Wednesday, October 1: High 80, becoming sunny; low 48.
- Thursday, October 2: Sunny, high 79; low 51.
