Today’s Forecast:
Rain moves out of New Mexico today and spreads northeast across southern Colorado through the afternoon, turning to a light snow in high elevation areas during the evening. Temperatures will warm into the 50s and 60s today, despite the cloud cover and a strong cold front that will push in from the north in the afternoon. Due to the warm air, most of what falls under 11,000 feet will be rain. Overnight, up slope winds will turn any snow into flurries across the region, especially for the foothills and adjacent towns.
