Friday…Weather Alert Day…High Fire Danger

Posted

Today’s Forecast:
Hot stuff today. Plus, wind. And single digit afternoon humidity. All that, spells extreme high fire danger.

There’s a ridge of surface and jet stream high pressure, blocking storms to the north, overhead. However, the tail of a cool front will shave highs over the weekend, back in to the 70s. But it will be short-lived. Heat will return in robust fashion, Monday through all of next week. And, our only chance for rainfall is over the weekend. 

COLORADO SPRINGS: High – 90; Low – 52. Sunny, becoming windy today, clear tonight.

PUEBLO: High – 97; Low – 55. Sunny, becoming windy today, clear tonight.

CANON CITY: High – 93; Low – 56. Sunny, becoming windy today, clear tonight.

WOODLAND PARK: High – 80; Low – 45. Sunny, becoming windy today, clear tonight.

TRI-LAKES: High – 85; Low – 50. Sunny, becoming windy today, clear tonight.

PLAINS: High – 99; Low – 58. Sunny, becoming windy today, clear tonight.

WALSENBURG/TRINIDAD: High – 88; Low – 56. Sunny, becoming windy today, clear tonight.


WEEKEND OUTLOOK: 
Both weekend days will be cooler, mainly 70s, which is much more seasonable for the time of year. But Saturday is the sunnier, by a lot. After a partly sunny morning, storms probably erupt Sunday afternoon.
