(SOUTHERN COLORADO) — A passing storm system will bring a quick round of active weather to Southern Colorado, including wind, colder air, and a chance for snow before clearing out later in the day.
A cold front moving through the region will be the main driver behind the changing conditions. Snow is expected to begin around lunchtime across the Palmer Divide and into Teller County, before gradually spreading into the lower elevations of the Pikes Peak region during the afternoon hours. Some of these showers may fall as a rain/snow mix, with a slight chance that a few showers drift as far south as Pueblo County. However, the farther south you go, the lower the chances of seeing any precipitation.
The window for snow will be relatively short-lived. Conditions are expected to improve quickly, with skies clearing heading into the evening hours. Now, even if you don’t see snow, the impacts from this system will still be felt. Gusty winds will persist throughout the day, and colder air behind the front will lead to a noticeable drop in temperatures…
