High Wind Watch
Issued: 5:51 PM Oct. 11, 2025 – National Weather Service
...HIGH WIND WATCH IN EFFECT FROM SUNDAY EVENING THROUGH MONDAY MORNING... * WHAT...Northeast winds 25 to 45 mph with gusts up to 55 mph possible. Across the southern parts of Flathead Lake, waves between 3 and 5 feet. * WHERE...Eastern Flathead Valley between Lake Blaine and Swan Lake, and Highway 35 south of Wood's Bay to Finley Point on the east side of Flathead Lake. * WHEN...From Sunday evening through Monday morning. * IMPACTS...Damaging winds could blow down trees and power lines. Widespread power outages are possible in the areas listed. Boat docks on the southwest side of Flathead Lake could be damaged. Travel could be difficult, especially for high profile vehicles. * ADDITIONAL DETAILS...Since Flathead Lake is around two feet below full pool, boat docks will be susceptible to damage due to the strong winds and choppy waves. There is a low probability of a high impact situation where enough wet snow could fall on the higher spots of U.S. 93, northwest of Polson, and produce patchy slick spots and/or power outages Sunday evening. PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... Monitor the latest forecasts and warnings for updates. Fasten loose objects or shelter objects in a safe location prior to the onset of winds. &&
