Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Northeast Montana
National Weather Service Glasgow MT
1242 PM MDT Mon Aug 10 2026
.DISCUSSION...
While conditions are expected to remain generally dry for most of
northeast Montana through the next 24 to 48 hours, fire weather
concerns should be fairly low as winds are expected to be on the
lower end through that period. Once midweek arrives, a deep
disturbance should bring wetting rains to much of northeast
Montana through Friday.
