Precip summary… There has been no recent precip.
Forecast discussion…

There is nothing on radar this morning in our area.
Today through the 27th… Tomorrow we’ll see a few more clouds as a weak, fast-moving trough with little moisture tries to move through.
Ridging will build along the West Coast and put us under a dry northwest flow pattern. Systems will stay north of us and we’ll see occasional patches of clouds.
Starting Saturday, temps will be 5-10 degree above average.


Starting the 28th… The weather pattern will get more active – YAY! We could see two systems between the 28th and 4th. Ensemble forecast models are showing 12-18” for Pagosa Springs during this period. It’s too early to buy into these totals but it does look promising.



My forecast…

* The forecast periods are from 8am to 8am. *
Unless something pops up, my next post will be on Saturday.
