The first few days of March have been delightful across the Rocky Mountain Front, particularly with the wind being a minimal presence for the most part. Monday 2 March saw a number of record high temperatures, and not by just a few degrees in many places. More record highs are possible over the next three days before the region returns to a routine closer to normal over the coming weekend. But no possibility of precipitation is being foreseen in the coming 10 days to two weeks. Hopefully we will be spared of the stereotypical big March regional blizzard, and conditions remain warmer and drier than normal. As for moisture, I can be patient until we get late April into mid June rains. Better that than a regular siege of inconvenient and dastardly snowfall.Records were also set nearby in the Arizona desert to the southwest and in southwest California around San Diego.
