Extended Outlook: After Tuesday's brief cool down, high pressure returns to Southern Colorado and brings with it another warm-up. Highs will climb through Thursday, with 70s and lower 80s in the forecast on Thursday. A shift in the weather pattern starts Friday, with a weak system moving into Colorado. Best chances for snow on Friday for now appear to be over the mountains. Windy and cooler through the weekend, with better chances for rain and snow Sunday and next Monday.
