Storm Update – Strong Winds Expected

The storm moving through Montana this week will affect most of the state, but the Butte area is not expected to see the most severe conditions.

Unlike the wind event in December, the cold front with this storm is not expected to push through Butte in the same way. However, we will have strong, gusty winds and wind gusts over 60 mph cannot be ruled out.

Travel Impacts:
With the timing of the storm, morning and evening commutes will likely be impacted. Consider making alternate travel plans if possible.

Areas with Stronger Winds:
Garrison Junction through Deer Lodge and the Anaconda area up toward Georgetown Lake may see stronger winds where they funnel through the valleys.

Driving Hazards:
Strong west winds will make north–south travel difficult, especially in areas such as Elk Park. High-profile vehicles should use extra caution.

Possible Scam Phone Call Alert

The Butte-Silver Bow Fire Department is aware of a possible scam involving phone calls soliciting donations on behalf of the “Butte Fire Alliance” from a local phone number.

To our knowledge, no entity within the BSBFD is currently collecting donations, and we would not solicit funds by phone.

We encourage the community to stay vigilant with unexpected calls, especially those requesting money, personal details, or payment information. When in doubt, hang up and verify through official channels.

Thank you for helping keep our community informed and safe. If you feel you have been targeted by a scam, please report it to local law enforcement or the appropriate authorities.
