Fire Weather Planning Forecast FOR S Cntrl and Sern Colorado
National Weather Service Pueblo Co
412 AM MDT Thu May 30 2024
.Discussion...
Critical fire weather conditions are not expected through much of
the extended forecast. Daily chances for showers and thunderstorms
will continue for portions of our eastern mountains and a majority
of our eastern plains for today and tomorrow, with decreasing
coverage expected through the Saturday. By Sunday, a trend towards
above normal temperatures and dry conditions looks to set in. Sunday
will be breezy for many locations, with spotty critical fire weather
possible over portions of the San Juans and La Garitas. Though hot
and dry conditions look to stick around into the middle of next
week, winds look to weaken below critical thresholds.
Afternoon smoke dispersions will be very good or better over the
high country today and tomorrow and good or better for the plains
for today and tomorrow.
--- thunderstorms imply strong gusty and erratic winds ---
