Today’s expected Wx: A 40 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms after noon. Increasing clouds, with a high near 67. Light and variable wind becoming southeast 5 to 10 mph in the morning.

Tonight: A chance of showers and thunderstorms before midnight, then a slight chance of showers between midnight and 2am. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 45. West southwest wind 5 to 7 mph becoming northwest in the evening. Chance of precipitation is 30%.

I declare today the start of the Run-Off Season… again (for second time). Barring any more snow storms, we should see a steady rise in flows. We will have a slight interruption with a wet cool down early week. But I promise… it will come.

Currently 46˚F, sunny and beautiful!

With the help of the Poudre Canyon VFD, the owner of said Dory and Import Towing got the Dory off of Mad Dog Rock! Mad Dog is now clear of the stuck boat. Happy boating

RIVER ALERT- there is a fiberglass Dory pinned on the top of Mad Dog with the open top facing upstream- VERY DANGEROUS ENTRAPMENT CONDITION!
