Fire Weather Forecast for Northeast and North Central Colorado
National Weather Service Denver/Boulder CO
326 AM MDT Fri Oct 2 2026
.DISCUSSION...Today through Tuesday...
Warm and dry conditions are expected through much of the forecast
period, with precipitation chances not expected to return to the
forecast until Tuesday afternoon. Breezy conditions are expected
today across the plains, but relative humidity values are still
forecast to remain above critical thresholds. A cold front is
still on track to bring gusty winds across the northeastern plains
on Saturday, where well-above normal temperatures are forecast to
coincide with low relative humidities, hovering around critical
thresholds through the afternoon. This will bring elevated
critical fire weather conditions to portions of our northern tier
counties for a few hours in the afternoon, when northerly winds
are expected to gust around 25-35 mph with the frontal passage. RH
is expected to recover fairly quickly behind the front, with
excellent overnight recoveries expected across the majority of the
forecast area. Elevated fire weather conditions will be possible
again on Tuesday for the same areas as Saturday, where both RH and
winds will approach critical thresholds for a few hours in the
afternoon.
Smoke dispersal conditions are expected to be widespread Good to
Very Good across the forecast area on Saturday, Monday, and
Tuesday. Friday and Sunday are forecast to see Good to Very Good
smoke dispersal conditions for areas outside of the urban
corridor, where Poor conditions are expected.
