TV10 Crested Butte and Gunnison Valley Daily Weather Update- For 8/30: We are continuing to see a healthy stream of monsoonal moisture lifting from the southwest through to the northeast with the brunt continuing to hold just north of 70. This line will drop as the trough continues to move our way. The showers we are seeing early are spotty and hit or miss and we will see a gap through midmorning that will brew up a fresh round of potentially strong convective storms capable of winds, small hail and localized heavy rains. The NWS has issued a flood warning but this is mostly for burned areas but still make smart terrain choices.
Temperatures: Lows stayed warm at 51 for Gunni and 45 for CB. Highs will hold to 68 for CB and 75 for Gunni. Lows tonight look about the same.
Outlook: This wetter pattern continues to evolve through Monday with the southwestern flow feeding us moisture with a push and pull from the northwestern trough and southern high. Expect moisture to taper as the trough moves easy taking over through Wednesday with a short lived dry gap before enough moisture is drawn back in for more convective afternoon thundershowers.
