There was some strong wind on Monday afternoon. West wind gusts topped 50mph on the higher peaks and it definitely got down into the canyons and blew around also. It was a fairly short duration but you'll no doubt find some fresh wind crusts and wind drifts out there today. The wind slowed down again in the evening and remained pretty light during the night. The temperatures have cooled into the single digits in many locations.

We'll see some scattered clouds today with high temperatures into the mid teens and light to moderate speed northwest wind. Wednesday brings a chance for light snowfall with really no accumulations anticipated. It's back to clear weather through the weekend. Looking at the long range, I see a minor storm on the 10th and another minor storm on the 16th. Long range outlooks are very subject to change but the overall pattern is a ridge of high pressure parked off the coast is causing storms to dig through the U.S. to our east.
