AFTERNOON...
This hazardous weather outlook is for northeast and north central
Colorado.
.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight
Winds will gust up to 40 mph over the eastern plains this
afternoon. Low humidities plus the wind will create elevated fire

gusts up to 40 mph. Scattered showers will continue in the

A storm system will bring snow to the mountains Friday through

accumulations are not expected. Upper ridging and dry conditions
return Monday through at least next Thursday, and likely beyond
that.
