Sunny Sunday, Fire Weather Alerts, and a Chilly Start to the Week

Sunday is going to be a beautiful day. The sun will be shining brightly, and temperatures will be pleasant. The Eastern Plains will see highs in the 60s, while the I-25 corridor will range from the upper 50s to 60s. Even the High Country will enjoy temperatures from the upper 30s to 50s. The weather service has issued a Red Flag Warning starting at noon and lasting until 7 PM. This means conditions will be dry and breezy, which can be dangerous for fires. So, be careful with any outdoor activities that involve fire or sparks. The start of the work week will bring even warmer temperatures. The Eastern Plains will see highs in the 80s, while the I-25 corridor will be in the 70s. The High Country will range from the 40s to 60s. However, the weather service has issued a Fire Weather Watch from Monday morning through Tuesday evening along the I-25 corridor and the Eastern Plains. This means that the risk of fires will be high, so extra caution is needed. By Tuesday, temperatures will drop slightly. The Eastern Plains will be in the 70s, the I-25 corridor will range from the 50s to 60s, and the High Country will be in the 30s to 50s. As evening approaches, there is a chance of rain and snow. This will help to reduce the fire risk, but it might make travel a bit tricky. The middle of the work week will bring more rain and snow chances. Highs will fall into the 40s to 50s for the High Country and 20s to 30s for the Eastern Plains. This will help to keep the fire risk low, but it might make outdoor activities a bit chilly. As we head into Thursday, the weather will dry out. Highs will rebound into the 50s to 60s, with the High Country seeing temperatures in the 30s to 40s. This will make for a pleasant start to spring. The end of the work week will see temperatures remaining in the 50s to 60s. However, the High Country might see some snow, with temperatures remaining in the 30s to 40s. This could make travel a bit tricky, so plan accordingly.
