Another Cold Front Wednesday, And More Rain...

The April Showers are continuing into the second week of May for the Foothills. A few scattered showers are possible on Tuesday, then a stronger cold
front arrives by midday Wednesday. That will increase rain chances quite a bit, with afternoon showers and thunderstorms likely for most of our area.
Following the cold front, wind will turn to the northeast, supplying an upslope flow, enhancing rainfall. Rain could mix with snow for some of the higher
Foothills locations overnight Tuesday into Wednesday morning, but little or no accumulation is expected. High pressure settles into the Central
Rockies on Thursday and Friday, and it looks like we'll get fair and warmer weather through the weekend.

This is great I am so glad to know we have our own Meteorologist.

Maybe he can tell me when it will rain in Bailey so the pine pollen will go away. People tell me I live in the banana belt but have yet to see a banana tree :P

So, where will the forecasts be posted in this forum or on a special page?

Storm chasers fascinate me maybe you could share some of the photos you get or maybe videos!

Great question NeutralGuy! Steve will be posting his forecasts on our new Super Local Weather Forecasts page here: mymountaintown.com/weather-traffic/super-local-weather which can be found in the drop-down menu that opens up when you click on Weather & Traffic in the menu across the very top of the page (or you can bookmark it!).

I too would love to see some photos and/or video while storm-chasing!

I have a real question...Where in Bailey is the temp reading coming from?

I am only asking as it says 73 right now and both my manual and digital thermometer are saying 80 they are on the back side of the house so the sun is not hitting them.

This is mostly a curiosity thing I know temps can be different depending on altitude and all that.

Do you mean the current temp that is displayed on the left-hand side of the Home & weather pages? If so, that's from Weather Underground; I have no idea where they measure it.

Yes, that was what I was looking at and that is good to hear Weatherunderground as that is what I typically use seems to be the closest.

Unfortunately, Steve had some family health stuff come up. If everyone could send good positive healing thoughts to his family, it would be much appreciated. He's hoping to start this week, but I told him to not worry as family comes first. I'll keep you posted when he's ready! Thanks.
