                                       5:55PM 4/11/2022

Started out the day at 42F which pretty mild compared to this weekend lows. Today we warmed up to 56F but the clouds and snow pack that we had kept temperatures from rising too much. Few sprinkles possible this afternoon.  Still snow but spotty now on ground. 

                                    Tuesday thru Sunday 

Tuesday: highs upper 50’s with low in upper 40’s. Maybe a rain shower but nothing worth mentioning. 

Wednesday: warm high in upper 50’s to low 60’s. Low temperature around 50F. 

Thursday: some rain possible in morning. High mid to upper 50’s. Low temperature around 40F 

Friday: clear highs mid 50’s. Low temperature around 40F 

Saturday: high upper 50’s. Low around 45F

Sunday: maybe showers. Highs upper 50’s. Low around 45F.

This week really quite for the high country. Severe storms to our west this week so we need to keep Eye on that. But rain amounts don’t look all that great. 0.75 maybe max amount to of precipitation all week. After this week we may have another chance at some snow but that’s long ways out but will watch the trends.
