Forecast Discussion:
I'm up in Estes Park on a slower internet connection and am giving a general science talk at the Estes Park Memorial Observatory Saturday evening. I also have stuff for Easter morning to have ready... so this must be brief this time. I'm also releasing this early since the forecast for Easter sunrise (when many have outdoors services) had changed a bit.
Figure 1 is the precipitation forecast for Sunday morning and there is more snow occurring across the northern Colorado tier of counties. In Figure 2, the chance of precipitation at 5 to 7am is about 30%. Take warm clothes and maybe an umbrella.
The longer range forecast:
After this really brief storm Sunday morning, things dry out and warm up quickly. We do have another chance of showers Tuesday AM (and temps drop) with the next front. Beyond that --- more unsettled weather looks possible at the end of the week and beyond.
Happy Easter everyone!
