normal temperatures Thursday into the end of the week.

.DISCUSSION...
Today through Monday night...
Currently, analysis shows a weak disturbance over Idaho, moving
into the region under southwest flow. This is expected to bring
scattered showers and thunderstorms across the region this
afternoon and evening. Storms will begin developing over the
higher terrain early in the afternoon, tracking northeast through
the afternoon and evening. The main threats with these storms will
be heavy rain, strong winds and hail. With above average
atmospheric moisture and slow moving storms expected, any strong
storms have the potential to produce heavy rain and localized
flooding. For Monday, another round of isolated showers and
thunderstorms is expected to initiate off of the mountains mid
afternoon. There is some lower confidence in storms maintaining
themselves past the foothills given the lack of instability onto
the plains 250-750 J/kg for both days. Shear values look to be
sufficient (25-30 kts), but not the most favorable. High
temperatures will be in the 80s to low 90s today and Monday.
Additionally, smoke from wildfires in southwest MT and north
central WY will at times push smoke into the region. To monitor
air quality, check fire.airnow.gov. TS
Tuesday through Saturday...
Ensembles and guidance remain in good agreement through the long
term. There remains high confidence in a strengthening ridge of
high pressure for Tuesday and Wednesday bringing hot and dry
conditions, and with it increased fire weather concerns.
Temperatures will be into the 90s most places Tuesday, approaching
100 degrees, or even a bit higher for some locations on
Wednesday. Record highs could be approached on Tuesday, and are
possible at all locations on Wednesday. Heat products will likely
be needed for portions of the area. Afternoon humidity looks to
fall into the teens and potentially lower for some locations
Tuesday and Wednesday. Winds do not look overly strong at this
time. Isolated weak high-based convection cannot be ruled out
late Wednesday (20% or less chance), but otherwise Tuesday &
Wednesday look dry. A dry cold front is currently progged to cross
the area late Wednesday night, but there is some uncertainty with
the timing of the frontal passage, and the strength of the post-
frontal winds. Also, smoke from upstream wildfires, which if thick
enough may impact temps, mixing and winds.
Behind the wave Wednesday night, there remains high confidence in cooler
conditions and higher humidity for Thursday into Saturday. Temperatures
trend from the 80s on Thursday, to the upper 70s to lower 80s
Friday and Saturday as a potential backdoor front drops in. NW
flow, easterly upslope surface winds, and increasing PWATs will
bring at least some low chances for showers and thunderstorms
(15-30%) to portions of the area. There remains uncertainty in the
details however. STP
&&
.AVIATION...
Showers and thunderstorms will form over the higher terrain this
afternoon, moving northeast through the afternoon and evening
hours, with all TAF sites potentially impacted. Storms may
produce gusty winds of 30-50 kts, locally heavy rain, and brief
reductions to MVFR-IFR. VFR will prevail late tonight as
thunderstorm activity diminishes. Slant range visibility will
continue to be reduced at times from regional wildfires. STP
