WEATHER DISCUSSION: Today looked similar to yesterday`s set up, with afternoon and evening chances of scattered showers and thunderstorms and above average temperatures. High temperatures today were seen in the low-70s to low-90s across the region with partly sunny to mostly cloudy skies. Expect low temperatures tonight in the upper-40s to low-60s with mostly cloudy skies to start that will gradually clear.
An upper-level shortwave passing through is the reason for the continued scattered showers and thunderstorms across Southwest and North-Central MT this afternoon and evening. Heading into Monday, another shortwave aloft will bring isolated afternoon showers and thunderstorms. Dry air at low levels again will make gusty winds the main hazard with storms.
