Tonight's Forecast: Snow will be the big story tonight as a fast-moving system moves through Southern Colorado. Several inches of snow will be possible from Woodland Park to the Palmer Divide to the Raton Mesa. Lesser amounts of around an inch or less of snow are expected from Colorado Springs to Canon City to Pueblo. The wind will be gusty at times tonight as well, with the wind and snow both expected to decrease after midnight. Across the southeast Plains, lingering snow showers will continue through early Tuesday morning.
