Fire Weather Planning Forecast FOR S Cntrl and Sern Colorado
National Weather Service Pueblo Co
339 AM MST Sat Dec 16 2023

.Discussion...

A warming and drying trend will continue this weekend and into 
early next week, with temperatures expected to be above seasonal 
levels. There is some potential for light snow across the 
Continental Divide later next week, however, confidence remains 
low at the development and location of weather systems through 
this timeframe.

Smoke dispersion is expected to be poor to fair across the area 
today and Sunday.

--- thunderstorms imply strong gusty and erratic winds ---
