After windy, Red Flag Warning conditions on Monday, calmer weather this morning has brought the big chill back to Southern Colorado. Freeze Warnings are in effect until 8 am for the southeastern Plains, with a Frost Advisory in eastern Fremont County.
With high pressure building to our west today, we will see a beautiful day! Sunshine and light breezes will compliment nicely highs in the 60s and 70s on the Plains.
