Tonight's Forecast:
Breezy this evening across Southern Colorado, with a few isolated showers possible over the mountains. The winds will weaken and turn more westerly late this evening as skies stay clear over the region. Overnight lows will be cool and comfortable, dropping down to the 30s, 40s and 50s.

COLORADO SPRINGS: Low: 50; High: 86. Hotter on Tuesday, with highs up by 3 to 6 degrees across the Pikes Peak Region. Smoke and haze are expected to increase by late afternoon/early evening, and could be with us for quite some time.

PUEBLO: Low: 49; High: 91. Hot highs and sunny skies for Pueblo on Tuesday as temperatures will soar into the 90s for the first time in more than a week.

CANON CITY: Low: 53; High: 88. Bright, dry and very warm on Tuesday. Our highs will soar into the upper 80s, with thicker haze and smoke expected to settle in by late Tuesday or early Wednesday.

WOODLAND PARK: Low: 46; High: 76. Tuesday's forecast will be warm and dry, with the potential for increasing wildfire smoke and haze by the afternoon and evening.

TRI-LAKES: Low: 40s; High: 80s. Sunny and warm on Tuesday, with the potential for increasing wildfire smoke and haze to settle in by the afternoon and evening hours.

PLAINS: Low: 40s/50s; High: 80s/90s. Sunny and hot on Tuesday, with highs expected to soar into the 80s and lower 90s.

WALSENBURG/TRINIDAD: Low: 40s; High: 80s. Sunshine and lots of warmth ahead for our Tuesday. Highs will warm well into the 80s across far southern parts of Colorado.

Extended Outlook:
After Tuesday, highs will drop a few degrees each day through Thursday. The smoke and haze will also factor into the forecast during the latter half of the work week as well, filtering in mainly from wildfires in Oregon and California. Other than a few isolated mountains rain showers, precipitation doesn't look likely for Southern Colorado until at least the end of the weekend.
