4/21: A classic spring mix for Easter.
Crested Butte Weather and Gunnison Valley Daily Weather Update-For Today- 4/21:As expected this moisture has started to back up over our area with regional radar showing the brunt lifting from the southwest through Grand Junction early but this will move over our area as the morning progresses. As the atmosphere saturates we could see a few stronger showers but snow will be limited to the highest elevations with heavy cloud cover and sporadic rain showers expected down low.
Temperatures: Lows have stayed steady with CB at 23, Gothic at 21 and Gunni at 28. Highs will straddle the 50 degree mark even with the clouds. Lows tonight will be closer to freezing with continued cloud cover.
Outlook: We are seeing a complicated mix in the western weather pattern as this trough moves into the area with a bit of a dry slot Monday set to close quickly. Look for windows of sunshine but plenty of cloud cover in the mix as the base of this trough passes to the south. By early Tuesday a stronger western flow cuts off this low to the south and sets us up for continued moisture through the day. On Wednesday the sun returns but weather to the north and south will threaten to move in so stay tuned.
