DISCUSSION
ALTHOUGH IT WILL BE QUITE COOL OVER THE DISTRICT TODAY, THE
COMBINATIONS OF GUSTY WINDS TO 40 TO 50 MPH AND VERY LOW DEWPOINTS
WILL ALLOW FOR CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS TO OCCUR OVER THE
FAR EASTERN PLAINS OF SOUTHEAST COLORADO TODAY, AND A RED FLAG
WARNING HAS BEEN ISSUED.
FOR SUNDAY IT WILL BE MILD AND DRY WITH LIGHT WINDS.
COLDER WEATHER WILL RETURN TO THE DISTRICT MONDAY, AND THERE WILL
A CHANCE OF SOME LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS OVER PARTS OF THE REGION ON
THIS DAY.
DRY AND WINDY CONDITIONS WILL OCCUR ON TUESDAY, AND CRITICAL FIRE
WEATHER CONDITIONS WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER PARTS OF THE DISTRICT.
FROM WEDNESDAY INTO THE WEEKEND IT WILL BE MILD. THERE WILL BE
SOMEWHAT BETTER CHANCE OF SOME MEANINGFUL PRECIPITATION
(ESPECIALLY FOR THE MOUNTAINS) BY LATE WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND.
SMOKE DISPERSION WILL BE VERY GOOD OR BETTER THIS AFTERNOON
ACROSS THE DISTRICT. SMOKE DISPERSION WILL BE FAIR TO GOOD
OVER AND NEAR THE HIGHER TERRAIN AND ACROSS THE FAR SOUTHEAST
PLAINS ON SUNDAY, WITH GENERALLY POOR CONDITIONS ACROSS THE
SAN LUIS VALLEY AND ACROSS THE I-25 CORRIDOR.
