Tracking wind & fire danger, warming after today

TODAY: We're tracking cooler temperatures on the back end of a cold front that swept across Eastern Colorado last night, topping off in the low to mid 50s along and east of I-25 today. Winds will be gusty across our Central Mountains and San Luis Valley, where humidity levels are low enough, and temperatures are warm enough (seeing some 60s there) for Red Flag Warnings until 7 p.m.

TOMORROW: We're tracking even stronger wind gusts Thursday, with some 60+ MPH gusts possible across higher elevation areas in southern Colorado and 100+ MPH gusts across the foothills in NoCo. Meanwhile, temperatures warm back to the 60s and 70s in lower-lying areas. Expect widespread fire danger.

EXTENDED: Fire danger continues Friday and Saturday with warm temps and gusty winds. Sunday brings some much-needed moisture and cooler temps back around average in the 50s.
