Back on July 20th, 1893, Montana had a record high of 117 degrees. DANG THAT'S HOT! This record holding temperature took place in Glendive, MT. Just on the border of North Dakota.

The record temperature was recorded again on July 5th, 1937. This time the temperature was recorded in Medicine Lake, MT.
