Southwest Montana enjoys unusual October warmth before sharp cooldown

Original: Average early October highs in SW Montana are in the upper 50s & lower 60s, but we'll keep unseasonable 70s through Frid

Meteorologists say southwest Montana should stay unusually warm through Friday, with temperatures in the 70s Fahrenheit well above the typical early October highs in the upper 50s and lower 60s. A dramatic change follows this weekend, when highs are forecast to plunge 30 to 40 degrees, with rain turning to snow and what forecasters call 'real autumn' returning abruptly.

Why now: The unusually large temperature swing, from 70s to snow within days, is striking to residents and weather watchers.
