My Mountain Town Weather From Meteorologist Steve Hamilton Morrison | Conifer | Evergreen | Pine | Bailey | Fairplay | Jefferson-Como | Alma | Lake George & Guffey | Hartsel
Gusty And Mild For Most Of The Weekend...
A few low pressure short-wave troughs will cross Colorado for the next couple of days. The big effects on our weather will be snow in the Mountains, with some snow showers for some of the Foothills... mostly around Park County, Fairplay and Alma. A few rain showers will be possible elsewhere. The other big factor will be gusty wind, which will prevail through the weekend. The windiest conditions will happen on Saturday, with gusts of 30-40 mph, and possibly up to 50 mph for a few areas. It looks like the next substantial system will arrive late Sunday into Monday. Showers will precede the low on Sunday, with the main trough arriving late in the day. There are a lot of factors still "up in the air" with this system, but it does appear that some rain and snow will be possible for the Foothills, the Mountains, and into the Denver area.

This is great I am so glad to know we have our own Meteorologist.
Maybe he can tell me when it will rain in Bailey so the pine pollen will go away. People tell me I live in the banana belt but have yet to see a banana tree

Great question NeutralGuy! Steve will be posting his forecasts on our new Super Local Weather Forecasts page here:
mymountaintown.com/weather-traffic/super-local-weather
which can be found in the drop-down menu that opens up when you click on Weather & Traffic in the menu across the very top of the page (or you can bookmark it!).
I too would love to see some photos and/or video while storm-chasing!

I have a real question...Where in Bailey is the temp reading coming from?
I am only asking as it says 73 right now and both my manual and digital thermometer are saying 80 they are on the back side of the house so the sun is not hitting them.
This is mostly a curiosity thing I know temps can be different depending on altitude and all that.
Do you mean the current temp that is displayed on the left-hand side of the Home & weather pages? If so, that's from Weather Underground; I have no idea where they measure it.

Unfortunately, Steve had some family health stuff come up. If everyone could send good positive healing thoughts to his family, it would be much appreciated. He's hoping to start this week, but I told him to not worry as family comes first. I'll keep you posted when he's ready! Thanks.
