Extended outlook forecast:
We are gearing up for a busy weather week! A powerful jewstream will park itself over Colorado, and these winds will mix closer to the surface. This means that winds will be strong, especially on Tuesday. The National Weather Service has issued Fire Weather Watches ahead of time for Monday and Tuesday. Please be careful not to create any sparks outside. Fires that start in these conditions will spread very quickly.

For the mountains, snow will start up around Monday and will continue throughout the week. Over a foot of snow is expected for the ski resorts!
