Yesterday I made a point of saying everything looked good on paper for a cooler and wetter weekend. So far, the models have been mostly wrong on that call. The exception was Ouray County over to Telluride and areas further north. Most of the other locations in the forecast area only recorded trace amounts of precipitation.

The models are still mixed on our precipitation chances today. If I just rely on real-time data and imagery, it appears that some drier air is working in from west to east. This could work in our favor. If the sun comes out residual moisture could fuel some convective showers later today.

As is usually the case the best chances of precipitation will be across the higher terrain. Please send me any reports of significant rain or thunderstorm activity.
