We're in for a beautiful Easter weekend across Colorado. Saturday looks to bring us temperatures in the 70s with more sunshine and another breezy afternoon. We could see record warmth on Sunday with a high of 79 in Colorado Springs and 84 in Pueblo!

We'd like to know what your plans are for the Easter weekend. Are you attending Easter church services this weekend?

Results:
43% Not Attending
38% Yes - In Person
20% Yes - Virtually

We're following this survey throughout the day and into tomorrow. Tune in to News5 at 4 p.m. as we review the results!

Editor's note: This survey is not based on scientific, representative samples and is solely for KOAA purposes.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has released new guidelines on how Americans can safely celebrate amid the coronavirus pandemic.

The CDC advised that people celebrate by avoiding large crowds and gather with people in their immediate household.

The CDC also recommended other steps to take:

  • Egg hunts can be done outside while wearing masks and staying six feet apart
  • Attend religious services virtually
  • Prepare and deliver a meal to a neighbor
  • Outdoor celebrations are safer than indoor celebrations

If you are fully vaccinated, the CDC advises that you gather indoors without wearing a mask, but encourage social distance and wear a mask with others that aren't vaccinated.

Although traveling is strongly discouraged, the CDC offered travel guidance to those who plan on traveling during the holiday weekend.
