Montana — A cold gray sky presses low across the High Line this morning, with a thin veil of mist drifting over quiet fields near Glasgow. The pavement looks slightly damp under dawn headlights, a subtle warning that changing conditions will shape the next couple of days as early holiday travel begins.

Residents stepping out feel the crisp November bite, and the first order of business is preparation. Anyone driving long rural stretches of Highway 2 or heading toward Wolf Point should watch for the day’s early rain–snow mix, especially during the late morning. While accumulations stay light, temperatures near freezing can still create slick patches on shaded roads. Keep extra time in the schedule and check vehicle lights before heading out.

Clouds dominate through today as a weak disturbance pushes a Winter Tease into the region. Light rain or snow showers may appear before midday, followed by more stable but still thick cloud cover. To be fair, the atmosphere looks too warm for meaningful snow, but models hint at a small, early-season snow chance by Tuesday.

Sunday turns mostly cloudy but calm, offering a break for travel, errands, or outdoor work before Thanksgiving week crowds build. Winds increase slightly during the afternoon yet remain manageable. Monday stays mild for November, with highs near the upper 40s and east winds adding a cool edge.

The next notable change arrives late Monday night into Tuesday. A slight chance of rain develops, and colder pockets may support a brief rain-snow changeover before sunrise Tuesday. No accumulation is expected, but the timing could slow early commuters and travelers pushing east toward North Dakota.

By midweek, colder air settles in, reinforcing the winter transition feeling without delivering a full storm.
