Q2 Billings Area Weather: A warmerthanaverage, windy, and dry week ahead
Jan 12, 2026
Monday is expected to be very windy, with gusts of 4050 mph possible into Billings, while gusts of 6065 mph are likely along the US-191 corridor from Big Timber through Judith Gap, particularly near Harlowton, where a High Wind
Warning is in effect. The Beartooth foothills and the Livingston area remain under a Wind Advisory through late Tuesday morning, with gusts up to 5565 mph. With highs in the 50s to 60s, strong winds, and relative humidity between 2030%, there is an elevated grass fire danger on Monday.Tuesday and Wednesday stay warm, dry, and breezy, with highs ranging from the 40s east to 60s west, continued fire danger, and some daily temperature records potentially challenged. A weak disturbance on Tuesday may bring light rain to the southeast and light snow to the Bighorns (generally under an inch).Another strong wind setup is increasingly likely Thursday into Friday, as a weak cold front and additional disturbances bring cooler temperatures and strengthening northwest winds, with gusts over 50 mph possible.Temperatures cool late week, but ensembles continue to favor a return to warm and dry conditions over the weekend, with no major pattern change expected.Miller RobsonQ2 Morning [email protected]
