My Mountain Town Weather From Meteorologist Steve Hamilton Morrison | Conifer | Evergreen | Pine | Bailey | Fairplay | Jefferson-Como | Alma | Lake George & Guffey | Hartsel
Cooler With Some Rain...
Precipitation chances will go up over the next few days for the Foothills with the departure of the big upper-level high pressure system. The added cloud cover and precipitation, plus a push of cooler air, will lower our daytime highs for the rest of this week. It looks like we'll have a more "normal" summertime weather pattern through the weekend, with increased chances of afternoon thunderstorms. Tuesday will start out fair, but showers and thunderstorms will be likely by midday and through the afternoon. Wednesday looks about the same, with a good chance of afternoon and evening rain and thunderstorms for most of the Foothills. Another front is due in at the end of the week, with more precipitation possible, along with another cool-down on our afternoon highs heading into the weekend.

Tuesday: Showers and thunderstorms are likely in the afternoon. High: Mid 80s.
Tuesday Night: Cloudy, with a few evening showers. Low: 60.
Thursday: Showers and thunderstorms. High: Mid 70s.

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.
