Mountain Weather for 11,000ft. Sunday 3/15

CB Avalanche CenterWeather

Date: 03/15/2020

Here we go, it’s going to be a beautiful day to get outside. 11,000ft temperatures will rise to near 40, and low valleys like Crested Butte and Gunnison will be even warmer of course. Winds on the high peaks could get into the 20-30mph range, but those winds don’t look to mix down to lower elevations, so we are mostly looking at fairly calm conditions out there. We’ll get more sun than the last few days, but still partly cloudy sky with a few clouds rolling through.

Dry weather starts off next week and next week will nearly be a copy of last week. Another low-pressure system is moving down the West Coast to California, and then it looks to lift up and through Colorado over the mid-week. Precipitation looks to start up late on Wednesday and continue into at least Thursday.
