On Monday, the weather will calm down a bit-but we may see fog develop across the front range so be cautious. It’ll be warmer and drier for Denver in the afternoon, with just a few light showers in the northern mountains. The winds will pick up in the southern Colorado- we have a Red Flag Warning in effect for Monday from Pueblo southward.

Monday forecast

Tuesday will bring a more active day. A cold front will move through, bringing heavier snow to the mountains, especially around places like the Eisenhower Tunnel and Berthoud Pass. Snow could fall pretty heavily at times, which might cause travel issues. Over on the plains, rain will turn into snow later in the day, especially in areas like the Palmer Divide.

Winter Storm Watch

Strong winds will be another concern on Tuesday, with gusts up to 60 mph in some areas. There might even be wind warnings for places like Park County and southern Lincoln County. Plus, southern Lincoln County could also face fire risks as the humidity drops really low in the afternoon.

Looking into the rest of the week, there’s another system that could bring snow to the eastern plains on Wednesday night into Thursday. It seems like we’ll get some snow, but probably not as much as we thought at first.

Be aware that highs will be in the 40s for the Rockies Home Opener at Coors Field on Friday with chances for rain and snow that day. We will also have chances for snowfall and chilly temperatures that weekend.
