Fog at times pushed out a few flurries during the morning, especially over Colorado Springs and Pueblo.

Tonight a few areas of patchy fog could sink back into the lower Arkansas River valley.

EXTENDED OUTLOOK:
Down sloping warmth returns tomorrow and Friday pushing highs back into the 50s and 60s! A cold front will arrive Friday night, and it’s going to be incredibly cold from Saturday through Tuesday. Heavy snow through the mountains starts on Thursday and ends Sunday, with several places seeing a foot or more through that 4 day stretch! Some of that snow will arrive to southern Colorado Saturday night into Sunday morning, but at this point accumulations look to stay pretty light for most areas.
