Nice Start - Ugly Finish

After the summer we had, it's nice to be getting some of these sunny and warm days. Enjoy it while you can, because the weather will be going down hill again on Wednesday. After a few days of temperatures around 80, the bottom will drop out again and we set up for a weather pattern similar to last week. This is typical stuff to have some wild temperature swings this time of year, as we transition to the fall season. However, if you want to hold on to hope for a stretch of Indian Summer weather, there is some good news. Long range weather patterns are showing a nice stretch of sunny and warm weather for the last few weeks of September. We'll have to wait and see if this comes to fruition, but certainly the potential is there. It should be noted that while we may experience some nice late-September weather, the west may see some cool and unsettled weather, and yes, dare I say the "S" word.. that is a distinct possibility across the Rockies as we head into the next few weeks.
