And the problem is there's so much
to talk about in the actual weather
department as well because we got all
sorts of things happening out there today.
We've got wins, we've got a forecast for
Snow Blizzard like conditions in some areas.
So yeah, lots to talk about in the weather.
But I'll tell you what,
today is going to be calm, very pleasant,
a beautiful day to get outside,
maybe take in the lights on
Pearl Street Mall in Boulder.
Beautiful day,
certainly a chilly start to the day.
Let's talk about current temperatures.
Out there we're at 12 right now in Lyman,
27 in Denver,
Greeley checking in at 18 degrees,
minus four up in Kremmling and
head down to Durango, 22 degrees.
But you add in the wind chill because
there's a little bit of a breeze out there.
It feels more like 19 in Denver, 12 in Lyman,
minus four in Kremmling and Durango.
It feels like about 16 degrees.
Alright, so your weather headlines,
it is going to be sunny and warmer today.
That is key mild tomorrow before the snow.
Been talking about this massive storm
system making its way toward our area.
It arrives tomorrow to the mountains and
then to the metro area tomorrow night,
and we're expecting snowy and blustery
conditions Monday night through Tuesday.
Obviously more blustery,
more snow in some areas.
We'll talk about that in just a second.
But let's take a look at HD Doppler radar.
There is that storm system,
this massive low pressure,
it is pulling all this moisture
from the Pacific,
already bringing snow to the Great Basin,
gradually pushing off to the east.
Right now we are in the clear.
We still got a high pressure in
place and that's going to flatten
out allowing for a few more clouds
to move in some snow flurries up
there in the Northern Mountains,
but that is about it.
Other also we want to talk about those winds.
They're going to be certainly
kicking up Palmer divide,
El Paso County where there was a fire
weather warning in effect this morning
through this afternoon with for gusts up
to 30 mph and very low relative humidity.
So the fire conditions pretty.
Ideal down in those areas and for
us here in the metro area for the
Broncos game that kicks off 205 today,
we're looking at a beautiful day,
59 degrees for kickoff.
Again, a little bit breezy out there,
but not too bad here in the metro area.
Let's put that forecast into motion
showing what's going to be happening.
We are clear throughout the day today,
just a few clouds out there,
but we are staying dry,
waking up to dry conditions,
actually some sunshine,
a lot of sunshine.
Up and down the I-25 quarter,
you can clearly see the snow
starts to make its way.
Into the mountain areas and by Monday
night again heavier snow up in spring.
Steamboat Springs also making
its way down into the metro
area I-25 corridor,
continuing into Tuesday morning
and throughout the day Tuesday.
We're seeing snow up there in the
northeast corner of the state as
well as the Northern Mountains,
which will be getting the bulk of the snow.
This is GFS model showing again
we're getting over a foot in Vail,
8 inches in Winter Park according
to this Model, 3 inches in Denver,
although another model has us.
About 1 1/2 inches in the metro area
and again 8 inches up in Fort Morgan
up there in the northeast corner
of the state where we're going to
get a lot of snow and those winds,
that's going to be an issue because
the gusts 50 plus mph up there
throughout the day on Tuesday.
So as a result we could see
some Blizzard like conditions,
very difficult driving,
low visibility,
just a tough situation up there
all around on the roads.
Let's get back to today because we've
got sunshine temperatures getting up
to 60 degrees here in the metro area.
Otherwise we're looking at upper 50s.
Low 60s,
thirties still up there in the high
country and your lows overnight dropping
down into the teens and 20s across the
eastern Plains Front Range Leadville
7 degrees for in low overnight.
Tomorrow we're looking at
again a pretty nice day
getting up to 52 degrees.
That snow moving in in the afternoon.
Tuesday is looking snowy and
check out how cold it is.
We are staying in the
30s through next weekend.
