BILLINGS – Yes, it will eventually feel like Summer.
A strong low pressure system over Saskatchewan continues to churn heavy rainfall over portions of northeast and eastern Montana Saturday afternoon.
Heavy rainfall in northeast Montana – up to 5 inches along portions of the Little Rockies – prompted a Flood Warning for places like Zortman and Landusky through Saturday evening.
Heavy rainfall has prompted Flood Watches to be posted through Saturday evening for portions of Phillips, Valley, Garfield and Petroleum Counties.
This same weather system, responsible for several days of cooler temperatures and rainfall in our area, should exit the state Sunday.
Clearing skies, warmer temperatures, and occasional afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms move in Sunday through early next week.
