For 2/8/10: For Today: This latest system has mostly cleared the area and the snow is all over except for a few scattered remnants that will keep isolated showers going mostly over the higher terrain. We can expect skies clearing through the day as we gap these weaker pacific waves offering more sun into tomorrow. The clearer conditions will hold through Tuesday before we see another round of pacific moisture offering snow on Wednesday and much of the extended forecast will involve spotty hit or miss systems.

Temperatures have remained pretty mild with the heavy cloud cover keeping the overnight lows at 8 degrees for Crested Butte and 7 degrees for Gunnison. Daytime highs will climb under the spotty sunshine but will hold in the mid 20’s like we have been seeing through the last few days. Overnight lows tonight will be significantly colder under the clearer skies with all elevations dropping below 0.

Expect a mix of conditions for today with areas of sunshine giving way to continued snow showers. This will be the trend through most of the week as we see more weak pacific systems rolling through to our south. As usual pack layers with the changes we are expecting and be prepared for all conditions.

Look for a complete Crested Butte and Gunnison weather report, 24 hour trends and real time weather information now available at WWW.CBTV.TV.

This weekend’s storm dropped just under 6 inches of snow in town and 8-10 inches in the high-country. Temperatures will remain mild with calm winds as the low-pressure system tracks south and east of Colorado today. After a brief clearing today and tomorrow, more pacific moisture will move into the southwest keeping the weather in the Elk Mountains unsettled throughout the week.

Partly cloudy, trace to 1 inch of snow possible in the morning, west winds 5-10 mph and highs in the upper 20s in Crested Butte and low 20s in Gunnison.

Mostly clear, light northwest winds and lows around 5 in Crested Butte and -5 in Gunnison.

Partly sunny, west winds 5-10 mph and highs in the mid 20s in Crested Butte and upper teens in Gunnison.
