Warm, Dry Start to the Week Before Cooler, Wetter Weather Arrives

Ways To Subscribe

It’s another stretch of warm and dry weather across the Four Corners to start the week, with high pressure holding steady through midweek. Expect plenty of sunshine and mild afternoons today and tomorrow, with temperatures running about five to ten degrees above normal for this time of year. Some thin high clouds may drift through from time to time, but overall it stays pleasant and dry.

A change in the pattern arrives late Thursday into Friday as a Pacific storm system and an atmospheric river bring in more moisture. That could mean valley rain and light mountain snow, especially across the San Juans, though exact timing and amounts are still uncertain. Cooler air follows behind the system, dropping temperatures five to fifteen degrees below normal by the weekend.
