Weather Story
Created by the NWS Grand Junction WFO
Happy Halloween! Today will see partly sunny skies and a pause in the showers, but deep Pacific moisture moves in tonight bringing a threat of heavy rain to the region, especially the to the south in the San Juan Mountains where two to three inches is forecast Sunday into Monday. We will also get a taste of winter as cold air moves in Sunday night into Monday with snow levels dropping to 8,000 ft. We have the first Winter Storm Watch of the season in the San Juan Mountains where a foot or more of snow is possible above 10,000 ft, while the central Colorado mountains have a Winter Weather Advisory in effect for six inches or more snow. Also, it's that time of year to set your clocks back an hour tonight.
