Warmth Holds Through Friday in Southern Colorado as Sunday Cooldown Brings Mountain Snow Chances
Dry breezes Friday could elevate fire danger in parts of southern Colorado.
Overview
- Highs stay 10 or more degrees above normal in the 60s and 70s through Friday under a persistent ridge of high pressure.
- A slower and slightly more northerly weekend system now targets Sunday for a modest cool-down across the region.
- Rain is possible Sunday evening in the Pikes Peak Region, with any low-elevation snow mainly light and confined to grassy surfaces if it occurs.
- Snow is expected in the mountains Sunday into Monday, and travelers should be prepared for winter driving conditions at higher elevations.
- Forecast guidance hints at additional chances for precipitation early next week, but timing and amounts remain uncertain.
