A wind advisory is currently in effect for Fort Peck Lake and northeastern Montana, with gusts reaching up to 40 mph. In Glasgow, a fire weather warning is also issued due to dry conditions and strong winds, heightening the risk of wildfires.
Today, temperatures will vary significantly, ranging from 72 degrees in Great Falls to a sizzling 93 degrees in nearby Lewiston, Idaho.
