National Weather Service Grand Junction CO
159 PM MDT Mon May 27 2024

.DISCUSSION...Above normal temperatures and dry conditions are
expected for most of the week. Under high pressure, winds will be
light through Wednesday, but afternoon gusts of 20-25 mph will be
possible Wednesday onward. This will lead to periods of near-critical
fire weather conditions, especially across the lower elevations.
Isolated to scattered afternoon showers and storms will be possible
over the higher terrain this week, favoring the Divide.


...GUSTY ERRATIC WINDS CAN BE EXPECTED NEAR ANY SHOWERS
OR THUNDERSTORMS...
