Nowcast- Skies cleared overnight in the wake of yesterday's weak, cool front which delivered a thin coat of white paint... or in technical terms... a couple traces of snow. Temperatures cooled off nicely right around suppertime and currently register in the mid 20's across the board, whilst winds blow 20-30 mph from the west near the high peaks. The corn harvest is going strong and is of course, aspect and cloud cover dependent. Sunnies generally kick off the party around 10:00, and working around the compass towards west facing, should last into early afternoon. On the other side of the compass, you'll find a few swaths of shallow, hot pow on upper elevation shadies.
Forecast- Mostly sunny skies wrap up the end of the work week while high temperatures climb into the 40's. Clouds drift into the Uinta zone and a slight chance of light snow materializes late in the day. Southerly winds ramp up throughout the day, blowing in the 30's and 40's by sunset.
Futurecast- The weekend kicks off with cloudy skies and a robust cold front sliding into the area Saturday afternoon into Saturday evening, delivering a period of heavy snow and strong northwest winds. 6"-10" of storm snow is a good bet for Sunday morning. The active pattern continues with light snow accumulations through Wednesday. Another strong storm is in the queue for Thursday into Friday.
A room with a view.... spectacular sight-seeing and a glimpse of the sleeping maiden.
