Today’s Forecast:
Temperatures at midnight are likely about as warm as we’ll see all day for many of the lower elevations. A cold front moved through overnight but the truly cold air will take until the afternoon to push through the region. We’ll start with rain first around the lower elevations of the I-25 corridor and just west into the Front Range. Rain will turn to a wintry mix and then snow as the afternoon moves on and temperatures drop. Snow will continue off and on through the evening but we should be dry past midnight. The Rockies home opener is today, temperatures will be in th 30s and falling through the game with light snow very likely. Commutes to and from the game will likely be fine weather wise but traffic and parking will be busy from all the people.
COLORADO SPRINGS: High – 44; Low – 27. Dry morning with showers after 11am through the afternoon, we’ll see a turn to snow likely after 3pm today. Snow ends by 10pm tonight with total accumulation of a trace to 1" on grassy areas.

WEEKEND OUTLOOK OR NEXT WEATHER MAKER:
Dry and cool to start Saturday but that night around midnight a rain/snow mixture will move in and then leave by Sunday morning, most of that precip will favor our northern viewing area north of Pueblo county. Sunday looks dry for the afternoon with gorgeous and warm weather returning for next week.
