This hazardous weather outlook is for portions of central...east
central...south central and southeast Colorado.

.DAY ONE...Tonight

Showers will continue over the mountains this evening before
gradually decreasing overnight. Additional snowfall amounts of 1
to 2 inches will be possible across the higher elevations of the
Sawatch, Mosquito and eastern San Juan mountains with generally
under an inch of additional accumulation across the higher peaks
of the Sangre De Cristos.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday

Scattered and thunderstorms will remain possible across the area
Monday afternoon and evening, with best coverage expected north of
the Highway 50 Corridor. A strong storm or two will be possible
across northern El Paso county with small hail and wind gusts up
to 50 mph possible with the stronger storms. Additional light
snow accumulations will be possible across the higher terrain and
into the Pikes Peak region. Meanwhile, elevated fire weather
conditions will spread into the southern I-25 corridor for a
couple hours Monday afternoon across portions of Huerfano and
western Las Animas counties.

More widespread critical fire weather conditions will be possible
Tuesday and Wednesday, especially across the interior valleys and
gap prone areas of the I-25 Corridor, ahead of another weather
system tracking across the Four Corner region and Rockies Thursday
and Friday. This system could bring much needed rain and higher
elevation snow to the region...though much will depend on the
storm track.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Weather conditions that meet reporting criteria for spotters will
be possible over portions of the region.
