Farmer’s Almanac Spring 2025 Forecast for Montana
Montana is such a large state that changes are not always the same across all regions.. For example: as the state gains daylight, as we start heading towards spring, the northern part of the state gains up to 60 minutes of daylight per day, and the southern part of the state may only gain 55 minutes.
Regardless, we are gaining daylight every day. It is never too early to look ahead to what springtime weather may look like in Montana.

The Old Farmer's Almanac has been helping farmers, gardeners, and everyday people with forecasts since 1792. After over two hundred years of following weather patterns, and more recently collecting information from over 1,300 weather stations across the United States and Canada, they provide forecasts that we still can use today.
With the size of Montana and its different terrain it's separated into two different regions. Central and Eastern Montana are in the "High Plains" region, while Western Montana is included in the "Intermountain" region.
According to the spring forecasts it looks like one common prediction is that temperatures may be warmer than average in both regions this spring.
- High Plains forecast calls for: "Warm temperatures with it being especially toasty in the north (6°F above average in April). Rainfall is predicted to be below normal."
- Intermountain forecast calls for: "Warmer than normal in April, but cooler than normal in May. Rainfall may be above normal."
With the possibility of a warmer spring there is hope that weather pattern won't turn into a hot and dry summer for Montana which could lead to an active fire season.
