Strong winds today and tomorrow, with some snow today that will definitely come sideways. The temperature will be decent each day but will feel much cooler because of the wind. However,…

February 24, 2026 Good morning friend! It’s a chinook! Webster defines chinook as, “a warm wind that descends the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains.” When I put ‘ol Coffee out the door at 4 a.m., most of the snow is gone and it is 45 degrees! True, the wind is matching that temp, and…

February 23, 2026 Good morning! I put Coffee out the door at 5 a.m. and noticed the air didn’t bite me anything like it had the last couple of days. As I looked at today’s weather, I noticed that it is 17 above right now, headed for 36 with 15-30 mph winds. A while back…

January 17, 2026 Good morning. Today’s weather looks a bit breezy. It’s 21 degrees at 4 a.m., headed toward 51, with wind gust of at least that same speed. The weather man is saying that we could get a batch of snow on Thursday. I don’t much care for snow, but moisture will be a…
