Extended outlook forecast:
After a couple of gorgeous days early this week, a potent storm system moving into the coast of California will bring stronger wind gusts to Southern Colorado late this week. Thursday's wind gusts will be around 25-35 mph, with high fire danger certainly a possibility due to the dry, windy and warm forecast.
A sneak peek into our weekend forecast shows the potential for a few rain showers on Saturday, and a wintry mix or light snow on Sunday.
