Marty’s Sunday Morning Forecast – 1/12/20

Overview:  We're tracking weak waves that will bring occasional snow to the high country and periods of wind to many others. The temperatures will vary some through the week but in general we'll remain cool.

Today:  Light snow showers and flurries will fall over the high country with mostly sunny, breezy and cool conditions expected for eastern Colorado where high temperatures will reach the 30s and 40s.

Tonight:  Snow will increase in coverage and intensity again across the high country as the next weak wave approaches the state. Locally we expect the wind to increase over and near the eastern mountains but we should avoid significant snowfall anywhere.  Low temperatures will again fall into the teens and twenties.

Extended:  Another upper level wave will move over the state on Monday bringing a period of heavier snow to the high country and possibly some strong wind gusts to the eastern mountains and adjacent plains. A few flurries may also develop over the eastern mountains Monday afternoon although we don't expect significant snowfall. Tuesday and Wednesday should be pretty sunny with high temperatures cooling a bit on Wednesday with another weak cold front. Thursday should feature more clouds with a system that will pass mainly to our south. Friday should be windy as the next cold front approaches the area, and when it gets here we would expect sharply falling temperatures and a chance for some snow.
