BILLINGS — Cooler temperatures and areas of snow follow a Canadian cold front across the area Wednesday night into Thursday. After a couple of days of below average temperatures, a warming trend seems to be in store for next week.
Areas of light snow are expected Wednesday night through Thanksgiving Day. Locations east of Billings are most likely to see some of the light accumulations. If you're traveling, expect snowy roads and areas of reduced visibility.
Temperatures will be in the single digits and teens east of Billings early Thanksgiving morning and 20s for areas to the Billings to the west and south. The afternoon highs will be mainly in the teens and 20s across eastern Montana and 30s from Billings to the west and south.
Temperatures don't look much different on Friday, with isolated snow showers still possible. Saturday and Sunday are a bit of transition days, with a high starting to nudge up into the 30s, maybe even a couple of low 40s for Sunday afternoon.
A high-pressure ridge will continue to build into the early part of next week, dodging temperatures up into the 40s and then possibly even low 50s by Wednesday. A continued dry weather pattern is expected throughout the rest of the seven-day forecast.
