Extended outlook forecast:
With the absence of the monsoon for the next few days, most of us here in Southern Colorado can expect more gorgeous, but hot weather. Dry skies are likely to continue through the weekend from Canon City to Pueblo to Colorado Springs, with an isolated storm chance for Woodland Park by Sunday.
Better chances for widespread showers and thunderstorms will develop next week as the monsoon flow returns. Heavier rain and the possibility of severe weather may threaten some areas by the middle of next week, something that First Alert 5 will be watching closely, In the meantime, enjoy the sunshine and this great weather!
