.DISCUSSION...A weather disturbance will move into the area
tonight, and then push slowly east across Colorado on Tuesday.
This will bring a round of snow to the burn area Tuesday,
with off and on but mainly light snow expected. Accumulations
during the daylight hours will most likely range from 1-2 inches.
Temperatures will be colder with relatively light winds. While
smoke dispersal will be limited to the Poor category by those
light winds, falling snow for much of this period will offset
and aid smoke dispersion.
Wednesday will be drier and warmer but smoke dispersal will be
limited to poor for much of the day. Winds increase Thursday with
the next storm system approaching from the west. That will bring
another chance of snow to the area by Thursday night or Friday.
