GLASGOW, MT — A pale orange sunrise spreads across the Hi-Line this morning, lighting up a frosty calm before the next winter tease pushes in from the northwest. While the weekend stays bright and comfortable, Monday’s weather shift could bring the first flakes of the season to parts of northeastern Montana — just in time for early Thanksgiving travel.
The National Weather Service in Glasgow expects mostly sunny skies through Sunday with highs climbing into the low 50s, making this a good window for last-minute outdoor prep or road travel across U.S. 2. However, changes arrive late Sunday night as clouds thicken and a weak Pacific front slides east.
By Monday afternoon, light rain will spread across the region, followed by a mix of rain and snow toward evening as colder air filters in. Roads may become slick through Monday night, especially in open areas where gusts could reach 30 mph. Light accumulations — likely less than a half inch — could still create visibility drops and patchy slush.
Tuesday turns colder and breezy, with highs in the low 30s under mostly sunny skies. The rest of the week looks dry but cool, setting up a calm stretch for Thanksgiving Day as highs return near 28°F under mostly clear skies.
