Strong to Severe Thunderstorms Today

High Fire Danger Sunday

High Fire Danger Returns Monday

Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms will be possible across southern Colorado today. Damaging winds will be the main storm risk for the mountains, valleys & I-25 corridor, with damaging winds and hail possible for the plains. Given the dry conditions, lightning produced wildfire starts could occur where storms produce more limited rainfall. Stay weather aware today, especially if you are spending time outdoors! #cowx

Windy and dry conditions will spread across southern Colorado on Sunday with HIGH FIRE DANGER returning to most of the region. Any areas which received spotty rainfall on Saturday will quickly dry out. Take extreme care to avoid wildfire starts! #cowx

Another round of strong winds and HIGH FIRE DANGER will be possible Monday across the lower elevations of south central and southeast Colorado. The dry and windy pattern looks like it will continue through much of the week ahead, so stay vigilant and avoid activities which could start a wildfire! #cowx
