Today’s Forecast:
High winds and low daytime humidity will prompted Red Flag Warnings across almost all of southern Colorado from the afternoon through the early evening. Fire danger will be extremely high, as most warned areas are also under a moderate drought. We'll stay dry today with a bit more cloud cover through the afternoon. Overnight we'll see temperatures fall into the 30s and 40s with lighter winds.
Red Flag Warnings are in place across the region. High fire danger exists today from strong, gusty winds and very low daytime humidity. If you see smoke, report it! pic.twitter.com/UslaFQdwGd

Extended Outlook:
Thursday is likely going to be a weather alert day for wind as we'll see wind gusts similar to what happens today. We'll be about the same temperature tomorrow, maybe just a couple degrees cooler in a few places. We still have a chance for rain and snow Friday night but most of that would be gone by early Saturday morning. Snow totals look confined mostly to the Pikes Peak Region, and they should be light overall.
