National Weather Service Pueblo Co
221 PM MDT Sun Aug 17 2025

.Discussion...

Isolated thunderstorms will be possible across the southeast
plains through early evening with clearing skies overnight. A
slight uptick in thunderstorms can be expected across the I-25
corridor and southeast plains on Monday with gusty outflow winds
the primary storm risk.  Temperatures will remain above normal
with a drying trend for mid week.  Then another uptick in monsoon
moisture will bring better chances for showers and thunderstorms
to the district Friday into next weekend.

Afternoon dispersions will rise into the good to very good
categories both Monday and Tuesday.

--- thunderstorms imply strong gusty and erratic winds ---
