Southern Colorado Warms to Friday Peak as Weekend Brings Mountain Showers

A blocking ridge drives the warmup, with Pacific moisture introducing late-weekend mountain showers.

Overview

  • Highs run 5–8 degrees above average with widespread 70s and 80s across the I-25 corridor and plains through the end of the work week.
  • Friday is expected to be the warmest day, with Colorado Springs near the low 80s and Pueblo in the upper 80s under mostly sunny skies.
  • Moisture increases late in the weekend, bringing scattered rain to the mountains on Sunday and a chance for high-elevation snow.
  • The plains remain largely dry, with only spotty, brief showers possible Sunday afternoon near the Pikes Peak region.
  • Overnight lows stay chilly—30s in mountain valleys and 40s elsewhere—with light winds and a mild pattern holding into early next week.
