Today’s Forecast:
The forecast is going to be simple and repetitive this week: hot and dry. A heat ridge is building across the west and fills into Colorado starting this afternoon. Highs will be up near record territory at times this week with temperatures through the Springs hitting the low 90! We have no rain chances this week but thankfully fire danger is low due to fuels being in good shape and light winds.
