The past…
At Stevens Field the high today was 78 and the low this morning was 38. Most of us stayed above freezing but a few cold spots were in the 28-30 degree range. Humidity this afternoon bottomed out at 12%. Winds at the airfield this afternoon peaked at 27mph.
Precip summary… None in the last 24 hours.
*** Archuleta County and the San Juan National Forest have implemented STAGE 1 FIRE RESTRICTIONS. ***
Fire update…
There have been no significant changes for the Plumtaw or Perrins Peak fires. Unfortunately, a new fire popped up yesterday…
Bear Dance Fire near Ignacio
89 acres with 0% containment
Last update: 4 Jun at 7:30am
Forecast discussion…
The upper level flat or “dirty ridge” will stick us for the next 5-7 days. We’ll see more mid and upper level clouds and a few cumulus clouds will develop in the afternoons. This also puts us on the windier side of the ridge. Afternoon winds will continue to be gusty.

My forecast…
