MISSOULA — This week looks fairly mild temperature-wise and storm-wise for Western Montana.

Most days ahead should be sunny with temperatures in the 70s and 80s, but the exception is Tuesday afternoon and evening.

A small cold front out of Canada will move south with gusty winds of 20 mph to 30 mph late Tuesday.

The front will create choppy conditions on Flathead Lake while also making room for a colder pool of air to arrive on Wednesday.

Currently, precipitation and storms look very weak on Tuesday night, but light rain is possible.

Lately though, storms have gained power quickly when moving through, so the weak weather model runs could change by tomorrow.

By Wednesday night/Thursday morning, temperatures could dip low enough to bring valley frost to plants and high-elevation snow in Glacier National Park(at Logan Pass.

For now, enjoy a pleasant weather day on this Monday!
