current conditions Winds were a bit gusty on Sunday. People noted that some drifting was occurring mostly in the higher terrain with mention of things getting stirred up in a few of the mid elevation drainages. There has been quite a bit of wind damage in the higher terrain. Wind direction has been mostly from the west and speeds have slowed slightly since yesterday. We are seeing moderate speeds along the ridges with gusts in the 30s along the higher peaks. Temperatures were quite warm on Sunday making the snow damp on all elevations below around 8000 feet. You'll find melt freeze crusts on east, south and west aspects in the higher terrain. Temperatures remained fairly mild overnight and are in the mid to upper 20s at most stations with some readings in the low 30s. We have some clouds moving through currently. |

weather We'll see some clouds move through today with moderate speed west and northwest winds. We'll probably still have a few stronger gusts along the high terrain today. There's a slight chance for snow flurries. Temperatures won't get a whole lot warmer than the current readings and we'll see a slow cooling trend into mid week with a northerly flow. Skies clear more on Tuesday with lighter wind speeds and ridgetop highs in the upper 20s. |
