0240L-WEDNESDAY OUTLOOK FROM GARFIELD COUNTY EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT-12/6/23

*A storm system is coming and the wind will be the main issue when it gets close and finally arrives on Friday evening. FYI, the snow chances are less than 10% right now. The actual storm track isn’t set in stone either and it appears that we’ll remain mostly dry, just windblown. As stated in past posts, the wind will become a major factor later today into Thursday as the front gets closer. The gradient will tighten thus higher winds. We could see 40+ mph gusts starting late Thursday morning.

*After frontal passage, winds will become northerly gusting upwards of 35 mph on Saturday with highs in the low to mid 40s. Other than this, today should be warm and winds will gradually be increasing with gusts in the low to mid 20s including the overnight hours tonight.

*Overall, we’ll be ok so here is your forecast from the NWS/NORMAN;

Today- Sunny. Highs around 60. South winds 10 to 15 mph with gusts up to 25 mph.

Tonight- Mostly clear. Lows in the mid-40s. South winds 10 to 15 mph with gusts up to 25 mph.

HAVE A GOOD DAY!
