Fire Weather Discussion as of 9:20 p.m. MDT Friday, September 13, 2024

The Daily Fire Weather Discussion for Northwest Montana and Libby has ended for the 2024 Fire Season. It will only be updated if conditions warrant. Daily discussions will resume at the start of the 2025 Summer Fire Season.

Aviation discussion as of 3:45 p.m. MDT Sunday, April 20, 2025 valid through 10:00 p.m. MDT Monday, April 21, 2025:

Scattered MVFR to locally IFR showers and thunderstorms will continue through the evening hours before ending after midnight. Could see some wet snow mix in within the heaviest showers as well. If a wetting precipitation does fall over the airfield then there is a high chance of IFR stratus development by morning that will quickly scatter out by mid morning with VFR conditions returning. Anticipate another round of scattered MVFR showers and isolated thunderstorms Monday afternoon into the early evening. Highest peaks of the Cabinet Mountains may remain obscured throughout the period. Winds will be southerly to southwesterly in the 10 to 15 mph range each afternoon although gusty erratic winds are possible with heavier showers and thunderstorms.
