Southwestern Colorado Area Climate

A Paradise For All Seasons!
 On The Western Slope Of The Rocky Mountains In Southwestern Colorado

Area climate is typical of that in the high mountain valleys. Summers are mild and winters cold. Rapid weather changes are common as storms travel across the mountain ranges - usually from west to east through the region. Within town and down the valley, the micro-climate is affected by the numerous hot springs in the area. Dense fog along the river and in the center of town is common in the colder months, particularly at night and the early mornings.
   
The area experiences a wide variation in temperatures from summer to winter and from day to night, and an extreme variation in precipitation. Monthly snowfall averages a total of over 100 inches from September to May.
  

There is low humidity and lots of sunshine.
Much interest in solar heating of homes, hot water heaters and greenhouses is in evidence throughout the county. Rainfall averages 20 inches annually, snowfall averages 100 inches in town and 400
inches on Wolf Creek Pass.
