My Mountain Town Weather From Meteorologist Steve Hamilton Morrison | Conifer | Evergreen | Pine | Bailey | Fairplay | Jefferson-Como | Alma | Lake George & Guffey | Hartsel
Windy, And Slightly Warmer Monday...
With the Arctic air mass moving east, we should have some downslope flow and a low pressure trough develop east of the Foothills on Monday. That will serve to warm the temperatures up on Monday and Tuesday, at least for part of our area. The Park County locations will stay in the 20s, but for the rest of the Foothills should make it above the 30 degree mark. The main thing on Monday will be the gusty wind, at 30-35 mph, with higher wind gusts around Park County. Where temperatures will stay cold, we may get wind chills of -20 to -25. We're done with the snow for a while, with dry weather expected at least through Wednesday, and temperatures will continue on a warming trend with daytime highs mostly in the 40s. The wind should calm down a little by late Tuesday.
Monday Night: Mostly clear, with a low around 9. Wind gusts: 40 mph.
Tuesday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 24. Windy.
Tuesday Night: Mostly clear, with a low around 12. Gusty.
Wednesday: Sunny, with a high near 33.

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.
