My Mountain Town Weather From Meteorologist Steve Hamilton Morrison | Conifer | Evergreen | Pine | Bailey | Fairplay | Jefferson-Como | Alma | Lake George & Guffey | Hartsel
Some Rain and Snow, but Not Much...
A strong low pressure system will develop in the southwestern states, and move into the Central Plains on Friday. The storm's track will take it south of our area, but we will likely still get some rain and snow. Minor accumulation will be possible between Friday afternoon through the overnight into early Saturday. Our Park County locations will get the biggest snow totals, but even there it's looking like only an inch or two. We may have travel impacts, especially Friday night, even though we'll get less than an inch for most of the Foothills. Friday afternoon, rain showers will be mixed with snow. Then it'll change to snow Friday evening as temperatures drop below freezing. The storm system is a fairly fast-mover, and everything clears out by early Saturday for us. We'll be back to sunshine, with highs getting into the 40s, except 30s around Park County. Then, Sunday looks fair and a little warmer.

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.
