Q2 Billings Area Weather: Finally some rain. Just before it gets hot again But cooling again for the weekend By: Ed McIntosh and last updated 2021-08-03 21:30:55-04 BILLINGS â A strong storm developed just northwest of Billings Tuesday afternoon and faded just as soon as it passed by. But in the process, it brought strong winds and more rain than in nearly 2 1/2 months. Billings Logan Field recorded 0.63 inches of rain. That is more rain in a hour than we have seen total since May 21. A few isolated storms will continue to exit eastern Montana through the evening with a clearing sky to follow.
