Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Glasgow MT
135 PM MDT Tue Jul 6 2021

.DISCUSSION...
Morning thunderstorms moved through portions of Phillips, northern
Petroleum, and Garfield Counties. These storms produced around a
half inch of rain for many locations in their path. These storms
have since died off and a clearly defined outflow/differential
heating boundary has been left behind. Locations south of the
boundary are denoted by upslope southeasterly winds and dewpoints
in the mid-50s. Areas north have easterly winds and dewpoints
around 60 degrees.

This boundary runs from northeastern Fergus County southeastward
through northern Petroleum and southern Garfield Counties. A CU
field has started to develop and thunderstorm development is
possible later this afternoon.

The latest RAP analysis suggests there is around 800-1000 J/Kg of
MLCAPE in the area as of 1 PM with 1500-2000 J/Kg of MLCAPE. This
combined with effective bulk shear around 40-45 knots suggests any
storm that is able to form has a good chance of becoming severe
with a large hail and damaging wind threat. The primary
limitation is the amount of forcing.

Additional storms will move in from the north this evening into
early tonight as they move off the Alberta Front Range. These are
less likely to be severe, however, a strong to severe storm still
cannot be ruled out.

Scattered thunderstorm chances will continue for the rest of the
week with additional severe storms possible on Wednesday (southern
Phillips, Petroleum, and Garfield Counties) and Thursday (far
Northeast Montana). Thunderstorm chances decrease as we head into
next weekend and early next week.

After near normal temperatures today, look for warmer
temperatures for Wednesday and Thursday with highs in the low to
mid 90s. Temperatures in the 70s and 80s are expected Friday with
a warmup expected as we head into the weekend. Widespread 80s are
likely Saturday with upper 80s to upper 90s on Sunday.

.AVIATION...
CATEGORY: VFR-MVFR.

DISCUSSION: Low clouds will continue to break up near the
ND border through the evening hours. Scattered thunderstorms will
develop later this afternoon into this evening with strong winds
and hail possible, mainly southwest of KGGW. More general
thunderstorms are possible elsewhere through tonight. MVFR
conditions are possible in any thunderstorm.

WINDS: Easterly winds of 15 to 20 knots this afternoon will die
down overnight and become southeasterly around 10 knots through
Wednesday afternoon.
