Weather Synopsis:
This is the last 7-day outlook for the season. Wet conditions will continue today across the northern half of the area as a warm front stalls over the region. Wet conditions will continue in these areas into Mon as the boundary remains stalled. South of the boundary...over SW, SC and SE MT it should be mostly dry with near normal temps. Showers will become widespread on Mon as the associated cold front moves E across the region. Tues is the next dry day. Even then...isolated showers will remain possible. Looking beyond Tue...an active pattern will develop for the next week. This is the type of pattern where we alternate between wet days and dry days as systems move E across the region.
Fire Potential Discussion:                    
The potential for the development and/or growth of large fires is low. The next concerns could be over E MT after the first widespread, hard freeze kills the grasses and after we experience a period of extended drying followed by a wind event. Right now...any such event is not on the horizon.
