9/12: Flood watch in effect.
TV10 Crested Butte and Gunnison Valley Daily Weather Update- For 9/12: Regional radar and satellite imagery show a steady stream of moisture and storms lifting into the area from the southwest. Cooler temperatures and consistent cloud cover will mean steady slow moving rains but if we see sun expect a quick response with stronger convective cells to follow capable of high gusting winds and hail. The NWS flood watch stays in effect through tonight.
Temperatures: Lows were moderated by the clouds at 41 for CB and 48 for Gunni. Highs will stay colder at 55 for CB and 64 for Gunni. Lows tonight will drop 5+ degrees.
Outlook: The eastward movement of this trough will dictate how wet Saturday is with a wetter start expected to give way to a mix for the afternoon. Be aware that conditions are primed for strong convective potential so more sun will stir up stronger cells. Daytime highs will be cool teeing up a cold night below freezing for the north end of the valley. Drier conditions return Sunday with temperatures on a steady rebound.
