Some Rain On The Way, And Cooler...

Daytime highs will be a few degrees cooler on Monday, with another cool-down coming up Tuesday. We'll also have an increase in rainfall chances for the Foothills, especially Tuesday and Wednesday. Denver's high of 94° came close to setting a record, but it was certainly hot enough, and well above average. An upper-level low is expected to head through the Northern Rockies on Monday, changing the flow across our area to the southwest. That will kick up the wind a little bit over the Foothills, and we may get a few showers, but rain chances are fairly low for now. Wind gusts of 20-30 mph will be pretty common around our area, with higher gusts in the Mountains. If we get precipitation, it'll be during the afternoon and evening. A cold front will sweep through Colorado on Tuesday, bringing another decrease in our daily highs. The big question will be how much moist air can get into Colorado with this weather pattern change. That's what will determine how much rain we get. Unfortunately, we'll have to analyze this day by day, and see what kind of precipitable water we end up with. Still, we're hopefully for a decent round of rain Tuesday and Wednesday.

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 :P

So, where will the forecasts be posted in this forum or on a special page?

Storm chasers fascinate me maybe you could share some of the photos you get or maybe videos!

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.

Yes, that was what I was looking at and that is good to hear Weatherunderground as that is what I typically use seems to be the closest.

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.
