Fire Weather Planning Forecast FOR S Cntrl and Sern Colorado
National Weather Service Pueblo Co
1040 PM MDT Fri Jul 19 2024

.Discussion...

A cold front will bring a cooler period of weather to southern CO
through early next week, with daily chances for showers and
thunderstorm over and near the mountains.  Locally heavy rainfall
and gusty erratic winds will be the primary storm risks with
flash flooding possible on burn scars if thunderstorms directly
impact these region.  Temperatures will start to warm again through
the middle to latter part of next week with more isolated thunderstorm
activity expected across the mountains.

Smoke ventilation rates will rise into the good to very good
categories over most of the district Saturday but remain in the
poor to fair category on Sunday due to cooler temperatures.

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