240 FNUS55 KPUB 240958 FWFPUB Fire Weather Planning Forecast FOR S Cntrl and Sern Colorado National Weather Service Pueblo Co 358 AM MDT Tue Sep 24 2024 .Discussion... Critical fire weather conditions are not expected for the next 7 days. A blocking pattern is forecast to setup over the region, which is likely to keep above normal temperatures and dry conditions in place over south central and southeastern Colorado throughout the remainder of the forecast period. Dry conditions are likely, though weak winds are also expected, which will help to stave off most potential fire weather concerns. Afternoon smoke dispersion rates will be fair or better for most zones today, with excellent rates over the eastern plains. Mostly poor rates are expected for Wednesday. --- thunderstorms imply strong gusty and erratic winds --- COZ220-242215- Upper Arkansas River Valley Including Lake County and Chaffee County- 358 AM MDT Tue Sep 24 2024 .TODAY...
