.Discussion...
Critical fire weather conditions are not expected through the next
seven days. Snow began over the Continental Divide last night, and
will continue to spread eastwards into the San Luis Valley and the
eastern mountains throughout the morning. Heaviest snowfall rates
are expected this afternoon and this evening over the San Juans and
the Sangres, where Winter Weather Advisories are in place through
tonight and tomorrow morning respectively. Travel may be very
difficult, especially through Wolf Creek Pass and La Veta Pass.
Rain is expected over the lower elevations today, with highest
amounts over the far eastern plains. A brief changeover to rain/snow
mix and then snow is likely over the Palmer Divide and the Raton
Mesa, with only very light accumulations on grassy surfaces
expected. Precip chances come to an end from southwest to northeast
throughout Friday as the system pulls off to our east.
A lull is expected for Saturday and into the beginning of Sunday,
with another system and more chances for rain and snow possible
for late Sunday and into the beginning of next week.
Afternoon smoke dispersions will be poor across the district
today, with poor rates persisting into tomorrow for the high
country. Rates improve over the plains for Friday.
