12/26/25 Friday 3:00 am
I am still trying to “digest” everything that has happened in the last 48 hours, starting with the Doctor appointment, then the change in the weather models, and the very mixed all-or-nothing precipitation results.
Then I wake up to this, the next weather makers.
PLUS THIS
URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE National Weather Service Grand Junction CO 204 AM MST Fri Dec 26 2025 COZ018-019-262300- /O.NEW.KGJT.WW.Y.0032.251227T0700Z-251228T1700Z/ Northwest San Juan Mountains-Southwest San Juan Mountains- Including the cities of Telluride, Lizard Head Pass, Ouray, Red Mtn Pass, Lake City, Silverton, Molas Pass, Coal Bank Pass, Rico, and Hesperus 204 AM MST Fri Dec 26 2025 ...WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM MIDNIGHT TONIGHT TO 10 AM MST SUNDAY ABOVE 9000 FEET... * WHAT...Snow expected above 9000 feet.

HMMMMM
What do they see that I don’t see? I am very skeptical
I may need to issue a Disappointment Advisory for the weekend.
I plan to manage this one with my head not my heart. I have over to 12 hours to figure this out as precipitation is not expected until this evening at the earliest.
