6-10 day outlook

Better weather is slowly returning to the region according to the National Weather Service in Billings. I know that is a few miles to the west of us, but remember, that nice weather will move east! Today we will see highs above zero for the first time in a few days. But by next Tuesday, we have a good shot at seeing some highs above freezing. The warmup starts this coming weekend!

To keep things simple, here is the forecast for the next few days.
