Meteorologist Corby Nickerson with the National Weather Service Office in Missoula said he was in awe of the powerful winds that swept over western Montana, especially up on Mt. Sentinel.

The National Weather Service is expecting very warm moist systems to move through western Montana and eastern Idaho this week that may bring an appreciable amount of snow to the mountains and rain to the valleys.

If children have their noses pressed up against the window pane on Christmas Eve, chances are they won't be seeing much of a white Christmas.

This beautiful blue sky and sunshine may be hiding a threat to the health of western Montanans in the form of stagnant air that cannot move pollutants out of the valley

The National Weather Service said early Veteran's Day morning that the south side of Missoula could have anywhere from 10 to 12 inches of heavy wet snow on the ground by 6:00 a.m.

The National Weather Service is calling for valley snow and colder temperatures for the coming weekend.

It may come as no surprise to anyone who had to shovel their way out of their driveway on Saturday, but the National Weather Service hasn’t seen this kind of winter weather in Missoula for over 100 years.

Before most Missoulians can rake up their autumn leaves, they could be under a coverlet of light snow by the weekend, according to the National Weather Service.

The beginning of the Labor Day weekend will be idyllic in western Montana, with blue sky and warm sunshine, but from Sunday night into Monday, the National Weather Service is warning of a drastic and possibly dangerous change in the weather.

The two hottest days of the year are on tap, according to Meteorologist Brian Conlin with the National Weather Service Office in Missoula.
