West Bakes in Another Weekend of Intense Heat as Wildfires Spread

over the weekend and early next week to the northern Rockies and High Plains, including parts of Idaho, Montana, Utah and Wyoming, according to an AccuWeather forecast.

It will be “dangerously hot, especially for those that are more vulnerable to the heat,” said John Wetenkamp, the science and operations officer for the National Weather Service in Billings, Mont., which put out an excessive-heat warning for noon Saturday through late Thursday.

Temperatures in Billings were climbing Saturday and could hit 102 degrees on Sunday and 105 on Monday—potentially breaking a record set in 1960.
