You may not have been awake to realize it, but Missoula set a new record high temperature for this date of 57 degrees, but the interesting part is that the record was actually set in the middle of the night, in fact at midnight on Monday morning.

Batten down the hatches, says the National Weather Service office in Missoula due to a strong storm system coming to western Montana, accompanied by very strong winds.

According to the National Weather Service office in Missoula, Old Man Winter is perfectly punctual, with the first snowfall of the season arriving right on time.

More snow and colder temperatures may be in store for western Montanans this winter, says Meteorologist Luke Robinson with the National Weather Service Office in Missoula.

Yes, you were right. July was almost the hottest month in Missoula weather history.

The current heat wave that has engulfed the western United States, and specifically Montana, shows absolutely no sign of relenting anytime soon.

Have you been thinking it's been hotter than usual this time of year? There's a reason for that.

Yes, Tuesday was a blistering day in western Montana, with new high temperature records set in two communities. And, there are more to come.

An early summer heat wave is headed towards western Montana with temperatures well into the 100 degree range within the next few days.

June is just around the corner, but summer in Missoula is going to have to wait at least a few more days.
