.DISCUSSION...

 - Meteorological Overview:

A cold front will push across the Plains of North Central Montana
this morning, which will usher in a brief cooldown along with a
few isolated rain showers to the area this morning. Behind this
cold front, a quickly moving high pressure system will follow,
which will shut off rain shower activity along with producing some
gusty westerly winds for parts of the area, particularly in and
around Hill and Blaine Counties. As this high pressure slides
eastward, southwesterly flow at the surface and mid levels will
advect noticeably warmer air into the area for Sunday and Monday,
resulting in a very warm day Monday with many lower elevation
locations seeing highs reach the upper 80s and lower 90s. This
heat will not last long, however, as a weak surface low pressure
system and cold front will push through late Monday or early
Tuesday, bringing cooler surface temperatures in its wake. A
second, stronger system will likely develop over Eastern
Washington and Oregon, which will help funnel moisture into the
area, kicking off scattered to widespread showers and
thunderstorms, a few of which could be on the stronger side if
sufficient shear (change in wind speed and direction with height)
develops to help storms become a bit more organized. An unsettled
pattern looks to persist through the remainder of the week as
southwesterly flow develops over the area, allowing Pacific
moisture to work into the area.

 - Forecast Confidence & Scenarios:

Temperatures on Monday: Confidence in very warm temperatures on
Monday is fairly high at this time, though just how warm it gets
is subject to some uncertainty. Looking at the big picture first,
models are in very good agreement that a strong upper level ridge
will be in place across the area, which will set the stage for a
very warm day across the area. Where the uncertainty comes into
play will be the arrival of a cold front, at this time expected
late Monday or early Tuesday. There are a few models that bring
this front in a bit earlier, which would keep temperatures from
reaching the current forecast. With that said, here are the
probabilities for reaching 90 degrees in select locations across
the area on Monday:
Helena: 70%
Great Falls: 70%
Cut Bank: 80%
Havre: 90%
Lewistown, Bozeman, Dillon: <5%

.AVIATION...
07/06Z TAF Period

The primary concern this TAF period will be for a cold front pushing
southward from Canada through the day Saturday. A wind shift to a
more northerly or northwesterly direction will follow the front,
with at least a low-end opportunity for showers Saturday
afternoon, mostly north of I-90. Instances of sub-VFR ceilings are
expected in northerly upslope areas Saturday morning. -AM
