Tonight's Forecast:
Severe weather threat will push into the eastern Plains this evening, with the potential for large hail, gusty winds and isolated tornadoes. A Tornado Watch will remain in effect until 8 pm, with the main potential for rotating thunderstorms well east of I-25. Behind the main line of storms that pushes east into Kansas tonight, it's possible that we could still see some hit or miss showers and weaker thunderstorms through early Sunday morning.
COLORADO SPRINGS: Low: 50; High: 76. While rain is not expected on Sunday in the Pikes Peak Region, we are expecting some very gusty winds. Highs will warm into the middle 70s and peak wind gusts could top 50 mph.
PUEBLO: Low: 55; High: 83. Warm and windy on Sunday as the forecast turns dry. Peak wind gusts could top 45 mph during the day.

Extended Outlook:
We'll start out the work week dry and warmer, with some gorgeous weather expected through at least the middle of the week. Highs will warm through Wednesday before cooling slightly as we close out the week. Our next chance for rain doesn't resurface again until the start of Memorial Day weekend, and for now, it looks pretty weak.
