Wednesday will bring mostly sunny skies and warmer weather to Colorado, with highs in the mid to upper 80s and a slight chance of an afternoon shower or thunderstorm across the San Luis Valley and Raton Mesa.
Weather Outlook
Air quality alerts continue across the entire state, and Red Flag Warnings are in place across the mountains due to elevated fire danger. Wildfire smoke from Utah is also expected to linger in the area.
Looking ahead to the weekend, hot and dry conditions will continue, with highs in the mid to upper 90s in Colorado Springs and triple digits in Pueblo. Fire danger is expected to become more widespread before monsoonal moisture returns by the middle of next week.
