MISSOULA - Gusty winds will impact western Montana today across the board, but stronger winds will impact the Bitterroot region and surrounding area.
The winds are part of a cold front that will track over the eastern part of the state.
Overall, the front will not drop temperatures drastically, daytime highs will still reach mid-to-low 60s.
The front will also bring a few showers to select locations, namely Polson, Seeley Lake, and Philipsburg.
Showers from the front may also hit a few mountain ranges midday.
By the end of the day, clouds should clear and signal the start of a warm weekend for western Montana.
Spring (and maybe even Summer) has officially arrived!
