Tonight's Forecast: A few snow showers will be possible across the region through Sunday morning, with most of the snowfall tonight expected across the southern mountains. What does fall tonight in the lower elevations shouldn't amount to much. Overnight lows will drop down to the teens, 20s and 30s across Southern Colorado.

COLORADO SPRINGS: Low: 22; High: 31. Snow will increase in both coverage and intensity through Sunday afternoon. A cold front may bring in just enough downslope wind off of Monument Hill to limit snow totals on the north side of town. A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect from 8 am Sunday to 9 am Monday. Snow totals from 3-6".

PUEBLO: Low: 25; High: 34. Pacific moisture will funnel into Pueblo County early on Sunday, with snow increasing during the morning hours. Snow will be heavy at times, with a Winter Storm Warning in effect from 8 am Sunday to 5 am Monday. Snow totals from 4-7".

CANON CITY: Low: 30; High: 36. Sunday will be a cold, snowy and windy day across Fremont County. Snow will be increasing in the morning hours, and will be heavy at times through late Sunday night/early Monday morning. A Winter Storm Warning is in effect from 8 am Sunday to midnight Sunday night. Snow totals from 7-10".

WOODLAND PARK: Low: 18; High: 26. After a dry start to the weekend, snow and much colder air arrives on Sunday. Snow will increase throughout the morning hours, and will likely not taper off until Monday morning. A Winter Storm Warning is in effect here from 8 am Sunday to midnight Sunday night. Snow totals from 6-9".

TRI-LAKES: Low: 20s; High: 20s. Winter weather conditions on Sunday, with a cold and snowy day across northern El Paso County. Snow will pick up by the afternoon, with snow continuing through early Monday morning. A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect until 9 am Monday. Snow totals from 4-7".

PLAINS: Low: 20; High: 30s. Sunday's storm will not be as significant for the Plains as for the rest of Southern Colorado. Periods of snow will be possible throughout the day, tapering off Monday morning. Snow totals from a trace to 3".

WALSENBURG/TRINIDAD: Low: 20s; High: 30s. The heaviest snow across the I-25 corridor will likely fall from Pueblo south into Walsenburg. Walsenburg could see up to 10" of snow by Monday morning, with snow most of the day on Sunday. Trinidad's totals will be less, ranging from 3-6".

Extended Outlook: Snow showers will linger into Monday, decreasing in coverage throughout the afternoon hours. Hazardous to dangerous driving conditions will be fairly common across Southern Colorado from Sunday afternoon through midday Monday. Single digit lows will be common Tuesday morning, with highs mostly below freezing Tuesday afternoon. Late week temperatures warm under the influence of high pressure, helping to melt away the snow from our weekend storm.
