731 FNUS55 KPUB 200253 FWFPUB Fire Weather Planning Forecast FOR S Cntrl and Sern Colorado National Weather Service Pueblo Co 853 PM MDT Sun May 19 2024 ...A Red Flag Warning is in effect from Noon to 8 PM Monday for portions of the area... .Discussion... Dry, warm and windy conditions are expected across the district once again tomorrow, leading to spotty critical fire weather conditions for much of the area. Fuels across most of southern Colorado are not critical at this time. However, Fire Zone 225 below 7500 feet is critical, therefore that zone has been upgraded to a Red Flag Warning for Monday between noon and 8 PM. There is a chance for afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms tomorrow, mainly tied to the higher terrain and Palmer Divide. An upper low pressure system will cross the region Tuesday, bringing a slight cool down as well as some light mountain snow and a better chance for showers and thunderstorms to much of the area. A warming and drying trend returns by Thursday and is expected to last into the following weekend. A more northerly track of storms means that much of the area will experience spotty critical fire weather conditions nearly every day. Poor ventilation rates are expected across the district this evening after 1900 and remain in place until inversions begin to break tomorrow morning between 0900 and 1000. Excellent smoke dispersion is anticipated for the entire area by 1300 and persist through the afternoon. Similar smoke dispersion is forecast for Tuesday. --- thunderstorms imply strong gusty and erratic winds --- COZ220-201015- Upper Arkansas River Valley Including Lake County and Chaffee County- 853 PM MDT Sun May 19 2024 .REST OF TONIGHT...
