Forecast discussion…
Look for fair and dry conditions today and during the day on Sunday. By Sunday night, we will see a small chance for thunderstorms through Tuesday as a low pressure moves from southern California into the Four Corners and eventually Colorado during that time. Unfortunately, there isn’t much moisture for this system to work with, so rainfall totals will likely remain under a tenth of an inch for Pagosa Springs.
