ValpoVike Posted Thursday at 10:48 PM Share Posted Thursday at 10:48 PM Tomorrow/Friday looks more concerning from a fire weather perspective than Wed, with lower RHs than the previous wind event, higher gust forecasts, and a much larger areal coverage of RFWs.

ValpoVike Posted yesterday at 02:02 AM Share Posted yesterday at 02:02 AM The RFW now has a PDS attached to it. I don’t know if that has ever been done around here. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinook Posted 23 hours ago Share Posted 23 hours ago Some more very high winds of 60-110 mph in Boulder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted 20 hours ago Share Posted 20 hours ago There were still some real nasty localized winds, but thankfully this one doesn't seem to be as widespread as the Wednesday one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago I flew out of DEN early this morning expecting a rough go. It was smoother than usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinook Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Mt. Washburn view from Yellowstone NP. This particular webcam is mostly in the clouds these days, even with the general lack of snow. The other web cams show some non-snowy ground at the entrances to the park North Entrance- Electric peak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I saw a big dust cloud towards Boulder driving up to Thornton on 25 yesterday, but winds throughout most the metro area were pretty weak.

ValpoVike Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago I had a 50’ section of buck and rail fencing that was lifted, moved about 10’, and broken. This particular type of fencing is wide open and not prone to catching the wind. Based on the damage I estimate a 100mph+ gust. The odd thing is that it is only 70’ from my PWS which only logged a max of 56mph and is quite accurate. These gusts must have been extremely narrow and localized.
