Our highest wind gust today was 47 mph at the airport. Of course, those gusts were much stronger on the east slopes of the mountains. Our high today is 60, but it sure did not feel 60 in those chilly winds. Some good news: the winds will slowly back off to a steady, cold breeze overnight. On Wednesday morning, when the winds are nearly calm, we should experience our first official freeze. Your forecast is below; please enjoy some pics from our Weather Watchers.
