At 8:00AM it’s 9 degree in the Village and 17 degrees at the 8800’ level of Andesite Mountain. No new snow fell in the past 24-hours. Currently the skies are clear over Lone and Andesite mountains. Current winds at the top of Andesite are calm.
Today expect mostly sunny skies and light winds. High temperatures across the upper mountain locations (at 9000’) will be around 34 degrees during the afternoon hours. Winds will be blowing lightly out of the NE at 8 to 12 mph.
Extended Forecast:
High-pressure will stay strong through Sunday delivering sunny days and cold nights. High temps at 9000’ will be around 38 on Sunday. Weather models are still favoring the movement of a large trough of low pressure into the region on Monday but at this point it looks like it will bring in mainly clouds with a few scattered snow showers and light, if any accumulations. Clouds with chances of snow showers continue for Monday night into Tuesday with 50% chances of 1 to 2 inches along with colder daytime temps in the mid 20’s at 9000’. The sun returns for a partly sunny Wednesday and Thursday with warming temps as well.
