High fire danger continues into this evening, with strong winds and
dry air in place over the forecast area. A Red Flag Warning remains
in place over the San Luis Valley, Fremont County, the eastern
mountains, and the southeast plains this evening.
On the opposite side, winter weather continues around Lake County

Critically dry conditions persist for the San Luis Valley
and will return for southern portions of the southeast plains

Chances of precipitation will increase Thursday through Saturday
