Rainshowers, thunderstorms expected over weekend

After a fairly long clear period, some thunderstorms and rainshowers are expected to hit this area over the weekend and into next week.

After mild weather and just a trace of rain off and on in this part of the state for a week or more, the weather is likely to turn today.

While bitter cold like the region saw over the winter hasn't come back - nothing below zero - record cold has set in including here.

Havre has been hitting lows 10 to 15 degrees colder than normal, with a low Wednesday of 37, 12 degrees colder than the June 21 normal value of 49.

The high Wednesday was 70, a bit colder than the normal value of 77.

Highs are expected to primarily be in the mid to upper 70s in this area through early next week, with lows mainly in the 50s.

The forecast says the area has a chance of showers and thundershowers this afternoon with showers and possibly thundershowers likely after 4 p.m. Showers and thunderstorms are likely before midnight with a chance of thunderstorms and showers after midnight.

Showers and thunderstorms also are possible Saturday, though Sunday morning is expected to see some sunshine in the morning before clouds and a chance of showers comes back in the afternoon and evening, running through Monday.

The forecast for Tuesday through Thursday includes a chance of showers or showers and thunderstorms each day.
