The long view

Palisade weather in September

The record

September is when the valley lets go of summer, a few degrees at a time. Normal for September here is a high near 80 and a low near 53, with about 1.7 inches of precipitation. Tonight's forecast low of 62 is running 3 degrees above the normal 59.

This is peach and wine country, so a late frost in April or a hailstorm in July matters more here than almost anywhere in Colorado. Through 3 days of September, the warmest afternoon has been 89° and the coolest morning 58°. The month is averaging 5 degrees warmer than the thirty year normal.

When it rains in Palisade

September normally brings 1.7 inches of precipitation. No day this month has measured precipitation yet. 2 of the next seven days carry a chance of 30 percent or better.
