The worst of the cold is behind us, but overnight will still be very cold across Southern Colorado. A Wind Chill Advisory has been extended through Tuesday morning for Bent and Baca counties, and the western part of Kiowa County. Wind chill values in these areas could drop down to -25 degrees, which can be quite dangerous for exposed skin.

WALSENBURG/TRINIDAD: Low: 10s; High: 30s. Warmer highs on Tuesday will mean that we'll finally warm to above freezing for the first time in nearly a week. Moisture will increase by the afternoon, with a light mix of rain and snow possible.
MOUNTAINS: Low: -0s/0s; High: 10s/20s. Snow showers will return to the mountains on Tuesday, lasting through Wednesday as a few disturbances push over the higher elevations. Accumulation through Wednesday evening will be the highest over the Sangres, with more than 10" of snow possible.
Extended Outlook:
Another round of light snow is expected to push in Wednesday afternoon through Thursday morning. Snowfall totals will be highest over the mountains, with general amounts of 1-3" for the I-25 corridor. The wintry weather will keep highs near the freezing mark through Thursday before a warming trend takes off. Highs by the weekend should return to the 40s and 50s, and it will feel nice!
