Tonight we will see increasing clouds and smoky conditions for most areas here in the Pikes Peak Region. We will see a breezy evening with winds out of the south at around 10 to 15 mph. Overnight lows will fall into the lower 60s. A Red Flag Warning remains in effect until midnight tonight.

The Fourth of July will bring us partly cloudy skies and some smoky air over a good part of Southern Colorado. We do have a slight chance of a shower or thunderstorm in the afternoon, mainly between 3 and 5 P.M. We will have winds out of the east will will help bring in some moisture. Highs will climb into the lower 90s.

A chance of showers and thunderstorms will stick around through Wednesday in the upcoming week. We could see some decent widespread rainfall on Tuesday and Wednesday, so we will have to watch for the possibility of flash flooding as rain moves over the burn areas. Highs will hover in the lower 90s.
