Today’s Forecast:
Sunny and warm ahead of a cold front forecast to pass through the state from lunch through the afternoon. The front will pass through the Pikes Peak Region first, passing lastly for areas south of Pueblo County. Behind the cold front, cold air and moisture will work together to try and generate freezing fog, freezing drizzle, or even flurries overnight into early Thursday morning. Any roads that look wet overnight could be hiding a thin layer of ice, so just drive carefully.
