MISSOULA — If the heat has been getting you down, today is your lucky day!

A very mild cold front came in yesterday and will keep things cooler today, even slightly below average.

As a result, temperatures will be reaching the upper 70s and low 80s for today only.

Watch the forecast:

Some relief from the heat today

Breezy winds will still be present, but they should be calmer than yesterday's gusts. Most breezes shouldn't average higher than 15 mph today.

There is a possibility for a few scattered showers and storms today in Northwest Montana.

Radar currently has these showers sticking around Glacier National Park in higher elevations, but don't be surprised by a quick sprinkle today near places like Columbia Falls or Whitefish.

By tomorrow, temperatures will be rising to normal levels for this time of year — mid-80s — with 90s expected this weekend. Fire danger will probably come back into concern very soon.

For today, higher humidifies and the cooler temperatures will keep major fire concerns at bay.
