A Red Flag Warning should be allowed to expire tonight at 8 pm. Strong wind gusts to 40 mph early this evening will taper off during the overnight hours. Once the wind weakens...cooler air will settle in, providing the mountains with chilly overnight lows. Along the Front Range, lows tonight will drop down to the upper 40s and 50s.

COLORADO SPRINGS: Low - 49; High - 76. Nice and cool for the morning hours. Afternoon highs will be cooler than Friday, topping out in the mid 70s. Slight chance of showers in the evening, mostly over the mountains.

CANON CITY: Low - 52; High - 79. The heat takes a backseat on Saturday to a cooler and more comfortable forecast. Dry and mostly sunny during the day. Increasing clouds and a slight chance of evening showers.

WOODLAND PARK: Low - 40; High - 68. A chilly morning in Woodland Park will give way a cooler start to the weekend. Look for increasing clouds during the afternoon hours, and a few possible showers or storms by early evening.

PLAINS: Low - 50s; High - 80s. After a hot work week, our weather returns to a more seasonal pattern this weekend. Daytime highs will warm into the 80s on Saturday. If you're planning ahead, Sunday should be just as nice.
