Tonight's Forecast:
A high-pressure system continues to build over the state which is why we are seeing these above average temperatures. Going into tonight we will cool into the lower 50s for most of Southern Colorado. We will likely be even warmer tomorrow for the highs. There won't be as much cloud cover in the area which will help to add a few degrees onto the highs.

Colorado Springs forecast: Low: 52; High: 84;
Not much is going on tonight, and we will have calm and clear conditions. We will lose some cloud cover going into tomorrow and this will help to add a degree or two onto the highs. These temperatures are considered above average for this time of year, and the average is in the 70s. We could potentially see a cool down in the middle of next week, but models are still uncertain what the exact number will be.

Pueblo forecast: Low: 53; High: 88;
Lows tonight for Pueblo will be in the lower 50s. Calm and clear conditions will stick around tonight. We could see some parts of the day tomorrow with breezy conditions. Highs will likely be a degree or two warmer than today because there won't be as much cloud cover in the area.

A calmer weather pattern is expected for the next few days, and its not feeling like fall. Lows tonight will be in the upper 50s and tomorrows highs will likely be a few degrees warmer than today. We are expecting this pattern to continue through the first part of this upcoming week.

Extended outlook forecast:
We will likely continue with these above-average temperatures through this week.
