Extended outlook forecast:
The sunny and warm weather continues through Wednesday. Wednesday becomes windy, especially in the mountains. A storm system will begin to move into Colorado Wednesday, with rain and snow showers for the western slope and central mountains on Wednesday afternoon/evening. Early on Thursday morning, the system brings a blustery cold front to southeastern Colorado. This will bring spotty rain showers in the plains and a mix of rain and snow for the mountains. Thursday night, areas around 7,000 feet and higher will see a chance of snow showers. This would include mountain passes, Teller County, and northern El Paso County including Monument and the Tri-Lakes. For now, this looks like less than an inch in Teller and N El Paso Counties and will be quite slushy. For the interior mountains over 10,000 feet, snow totals will add up to several inches by Thursday night.
