Back To Warm And Windy Weather...

Strong high pressure is setting up in the Central Rockies, with a low pressure lee trough east of the mountains. The two effects will be warmer 
temperatures, and gusty wind. Rain chances will stay low, except for a slight chance of snow showers Tuesday night. It looks like the breezy-to-gusty
wind will keep up through most of the week. By Wednesday, the main issue will be elevated fire weather conditions for the Foothills. Monday, we'll get
warm and dry weather, and the wind will steadily pick up during the day as high pressure gets stronger over the mountains. The weekend snowfall is
already melting fast. On Tuesday, a low will pass through followed by a cold front. There will be a little bit of moist air available - just enough for a slight
chance of snow showers Tuesday night. It'll be slightly cooler Wednesday, and still windy.

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.
