Your probably tired of reading about a dry ridge over the western U.S. Unfortunately that will be the case again as another ridge is building today bringing us back to dry weather and a warming trend into the weekend. At least the spring breakers will be exited! Cold low temperatures from last night will rebound today under mostly clear skies. A small shortwave may flatten the high pressure ridge on Saturday with increased winds and clouds but any possible perspiration loots to be very light at this time. Models don’t have a handle on next week yet so we’ll just have to focus on the short term weather.

A passing cold front is bringing increased snowfall before sunrise this morning. This snowfall will decrease behind the front and become more scattered today. By this evening we should see clearing skies that will lead to a cold low temperature tonight. There may be some clouds building on Thursday, but otherwise we’ll be back in a drying trend through the weekend under another high pressure ridge.

The atmosphere will temporarily stabilize today with partly cloudy sky’s and no precipitation. Another cold front will move into Northern Colorado this afternoon and bring us another chance for snowfall and more gusty winds, both similar to last night. Drier air will be moving into our area Wednesday night but we may still see a snow flurry on Thursday before a ridge of high pressure builds putting us back into dry weather and warming temps through the weekend.

Spring break is being put on hold for the start of this week as we move into unsettled weather through Thursday morning. Clouds and winds will increase today ahead of an approaching cold front. Light snow showers arrive tonight with the front, and another pulse comes through Tuesday night. Unfortunately, we’re sitting on the southern edge of this weather system and most snow will fall further north. This unsettled weather will be moving out on Thursday as we return to warmer temps and dry weather for the Grand Traverse weekend.

Another sunny and warm day is in store for you Al Johnson racers. The recent stretch of clear days will end this week under cooler and unsettled weather. High level clouds will begin to increase this afternoon as a weak Pacific disturbance passes overhead tonight, with the small chance of a few raindrops or snowflakes falling tonight. On Monday night, a low level trough and cold will bring periods of heavy snowfall to the northern half of the state. Crested Butte is on the southern edge of action with the chance for a couple inches of new snow. Another quick disturbance moves through Wednesday.
