What August feels like
Late August is when the Palisade peaches come over from the Western Slope and the farmers markets smell like a fruit stand for a few weeks. The storms keep coming but arrive later in the day and clear off faster.
Expect about 4 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. about 13 afternoons top 90°.
