The last two weekends have been particularly bad... and next weekend isn't looking great either. It can definitely get windy in Sept., but it can be sunny, fairly warm, and fairly wind-free as well. It's almost impossible to predict the wind in the mountains on a given day, but I'd say don't get discouraged by the last two weekends, they're not the norm for this time of year.
Thanks so much, John! That's exactly what I was wondering. I wasn't expecting too many great answers as I knew it was a pretty nebulous question ... but I just don't understand why posting a question in a forum seems to always be a free invitation to getting mocked by strangers :-/

Internet forums are *not* for education/information/etc.
They are for the forum members' entertainment.
And most are godawful boring without colorful individuals making things entertaining.
If you are really looking for useful information might I suggest Teh Google. Not internet forums.
Not sure why I was supposed to assume that "13ers: Colorado 13er questions, conditions, and other info should be posted here. Also includes topics related to 13ers.com." was strictly for personal entertainment. I sort of figured that's what "Off Route: Non-mountaineering topics. Trolls will be removed. " was created for. I'm obviously not going to reference any information I collect here in a research paper, but when Teh Google wasn't able answer my question, this seemed to be the next best option.
Also, for the record, I thought your comment was fine. Laugh at my question all you want and I agree that colorful people make the world go round, but colorful doesn't have to be insulting, and I don't see why my intelligence and abilities need to come into question just because I asked about the weather ... that was all!
