8/17: Hot and sunny but be prepared.
Crested Butte Weather and Gunnison Valley Daily Weather Update-For Today- 8/17: The northern jet stream continues to press south and this line has fired some nocturnal thundershowers that are showing up to our north early. These will offer just some clouds on the divide early but are a hint at the potential into the afternoon. Fuel is limited but a hot sunny day could produce very isolated strong windy cells into the afternoon. These will move through quickly but expect microburst strong winds and be prepared.
Temperatures: Overnight lows dropped to 35 for Crested Butte and 39 for Gunnison. Highs will look like yesterday at 83 for Gunni and 75 for CB. Lows tonight will look the same.
Outlook: This dry western flow hangs on through midweek with all the same components from this weekend in play. Expect hot windy conditions with very real fire danger brewing in the west. Some moisture creeps back in through the middle of the week but so far models keep it to the south and east. Enjoy the sun but expect these conditions to produce isolated but potentially strong cells.
