STP 09-11-2016: A Very Pleasant Saturday Afternoon

Issue Date: Sunday, September 11th, 2016
Issue Time: 9:00 AM MDT

Summary:

A strong area of high pressure was the story of the day as sunny and dry conditions prevailed over the entire state, with the exception of a slight shower over the border of the Northwest Slopes and Northern Mountains in the early afternoon, little of which likely made it to the ground. Temperatures remained seasonal and cooler throughout the Eastern Plains and Urban Corridor, with warming temperatures making their way into the High Country due to warm westerly/southwesterly desert winds increasing in the late afternoon. Overall, it presented a nice opportunity to enjoy a Saturday afternoon outdoors, which seemingly does not occur often enough.
