Extended outlook forecast:
On Saturday, fog is expected in the eastern plains in the morning, with some of that fog making it as far west as I-25. For those who see sunshine, like our mountain valleys and in the plains where the fog clears, temperatures will rise to the 40s or 50s again. Then a blustery cold front will move through in the evening, bringing cold temperatures and a chance of snow. Right now, snow looks to favor the plains on Saturday night, with accumulations less than 2 inches. The snow will be hit-or-miss, but there is a chance of showers for I-25. Sunday we will clear out but it will be cold with high temperatures in the middle 30s.
