Red flag warnings are in place along the I-25 corridor for Saturday

Tonight's Forecast: We are continuing to set records for the month of October here in Southern Colorado. We have already broken the record high in Colorado Springs, and tied the record high in Pueblo. Along with this, red flag warnings are in place until 7 PM tonight. With these low humidity values (5-15% across Colorado) and gusty winds (up to 30 mph) fires can spread much more easily in our area. Please avoid burning anything outside today!

Extended outlook forecast: A cold front is expected to push through tonight, which will help to cool us off tomorrow. As this front passes through, we could see some breezy conditions. The red flag warnings will still likely expire because humidity values will likely start to increase as we cool off.

Into next week, calm conditions are still expected. Unfortunately we will be continuing with the above-average temperatures. It will be similar to what we saw this past week with temperatures going back and forth between the 70s and 80s. ____
