In Brief:
We remain dry with above normal temperatures for many days.
Friday Update:
Astonishingly long stretch of quiet weather and above normal temperatures. Hoping for more snow in Thanksgiving week!
End Friday update.
Sunday update:
The models are coming more into agreement for the Wednesday/Thursday cool down and chance of precipitation (Figure 1 update). The cold front arrives around 2pm on Tuesday. This doesn't look, at this time, to be a very wet or very cold storm. Some snowfall is possible at night. More later!
End Sunday update.
Forecast Discussion:
We remain about 15-20F above normal and completely dry through Tuesday. Enjoy a comfortable weekend!
The Longer Range Forecast:
A trough finally approaches the state mid-week (Figure 2). The GFS has snow/rain chances looking very spotty at this time (Figure 3). Over the next 5 days, the precipitation remains in the mountains, and very light (Figure 4). That falls as light snow amounts (Figure 5). There is a hint of more mountain snows over the next 10 days, but overall, things are very quiet. Enjoy a warm late-fall.
