Extended Outlook: Both our morning lows and daytime highs will moderate through the middle of the week. In fact, our forecast turns quite warm by Tuesday and Wednesday. Highs will be around 10 to 15 degrees above average. Enjoy the warm stuff because a powerful blast of cold Canadian air is still on the menu late this week. Highs Thursday will only warm into the 30s and 40s in most areas, with lows Thursday night dropping down to the teens and 20s. The likelihood that we'll see wintry precipitation is becoming more certain as well, with minor snow accumulations possible from the mountains to the Plains. Best chances appear to be Thursday afternoon/evening, but there's still some uncertainty this far out with respect to timing.
