7/26: Slower moving cooler showers.
TV10 Crested Butte and Gunnison Valley Daily Weather Update- For 7/26: We have seen the pattern turn to the southwest overnight with regional satellite imagery showing moisture moving through UT. We are seeing heaver cloud cover early which will slow the convective potential for storms producing cooler waves of slower moving showers. Localized heavy rains including small hail and lightning will remain possible into the afternoon and this will also help knock down any remaining smoke.
Temperatures: Lows were mild with the clouds at 45 for CB and 55 for Gunni. Highs will be cooler holding to 80 for Gunni and 74 for CB. Lows tonight will cool again.
Outlook: The eastward progression of this flow from the southwest is being slowed by a blocking front in the Midwest but skies will be clearing early Saturday. Sunny skies and remnant moisture will fuel afternoon thundershowers worth planning for but we clear into Sunday with models keeping us dry into the new week. No thundershowers Sunday may be overly optimistic so be prepared if you are headed up high.
