.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

Dangerous heat is expected today across portions of our plains, 
where temperatures of 96F to 107F degrees are expected. Near record 
temperatures are forecast for both Colorado Springs and Pueblo, and 
both population centers have been included in Heat Advisories that 
span across El Paso, Pueblo, Crowley, Otero, Kiowa, Bent, Prowers, 
and eastern Fremont counties from 10 AM through 9 PM today. Please 
check on friends and neighbors, and never leave children or pets 
alone in cars. Those prone to heat related illness should limit time 
outdoors today!

High fire danger is also expected today. Hot, dry and windy 
conditions will spread across the entire forecast area, with Red 
Flag Warnings in effect for our central and western mountains where 
fuels are also critical. Please avoid any activities that could 
start a fire today, especially in our central and western mountains!

Isolated showers and thunderstorms will also be possible today, 
mainly across our southern and eastern plains along a line extending 
from the southern Sangres out towards Lamar. Damaging winds with 
gusts to 60 mph will be possible with storms today, along with 
frequent lightning.

Dangerous heat continues over our plains, where Heat Advisories 
have been issued for Saturday over El Paso, Pueblo, Crowley,

this weekend!

Thunderstorm chances return to the forecast as well, with isolated 
chances through the weekend and increasing moisture heading into
