Extended outlook forecast:

By Friday night we have a chance of rain and snow showers returning to southern Colorado. We will continue to see snow for the mountains and portions of I-25 through the day on Saturday, with rain in the eastern plains. Showers taper off on Sunday.
A couple of tricky factors in this weekend's storm are temperatures and storm track. There is uncertainty in how cold we will get and where the storm will track, which will greatly influence who sees rain versus snow and where the heaviest precipitation falls.
