0305L-THURSDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT-11/30/23 *Rain is possible in our area as a trough moves through during the day. There could be a dusting of snow overnight if we can get cold enough and precip remains over the area. Timing is the question on that right now.

0330L-TUESDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT-11/28/23 *No major impacts to the area until “possibly” late Wednesday evening into Thursday when a shortwave trough moves through the area. Moisture return should be good enough for rain in the southern and eastern halves of the state but up here those chances fall quite a bit since instability is weak. We could see a dusting of snow overnight Wednesday when temps fall but rain is possible during the [...]

0315L-TUESDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT-11/21/23 *It’s going to get cooler then colder as we move through the week. I received several calls yesterday about whether we would get a lot of winter precip this weekend and here is that answer: as of now, NO.
