Warming Winds

Colorado Springs, weather | UltraRob | Thursday, January 31st, 2008 at 7:33 am

Over the weekend we had very strong winds. At night I would wake up hearing stuff blowing around. Saturday morning we found our shed upside down.

This time of year, our strongest winds are usually Chinook winds. This month it’s hardly gotten above freezing but by Sunday it was nearly 60 degrees. Even at Barr Camp at 10,200 feet it got up to 40 degrees.

Now the Chinook winds are gone and it’s cold again. Last night we got a little snow again. Although we still have a couple more cold months, I’m ready for some warm weather riding.
