This hazardous weather outlook is for portions of central...east
central...south central and southeast Colorado.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

Critical fire weather conditions due to a combination of low
humidity and gusty winds will spread across the San Luis Valley,
Fremont county and portions of the southern I-25 corridor this
afternoon and evening.  Please avoid fire starts as conditions will
be favorable for rapid rates of fire spread.

Snow will spread into the Continental Divide tonight and into
portions of Teller county and the northern Sangre De Cristo
mountains towards dawn.  The greatest snow accumulations, up to 3
inches, will be possible across the higher elevations and mountain
passes of the Continental Divide by Saturday morning.  A dusting to
up to an inch of snow will be possible across the higher peaks of
the Sangre De Cristo mountains and Pikes Peak.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday

High fire danger will be possible on Saturday across the San Luis
Valley and southern Interstate 25 corridor due to gusty winds and
low humidity values. Periods of snow will be possible along the
Continental Divide over the weekend with minor accumulations
possible, mainly north of Cottonwood Pass. A few showers and
thunderstorms will be possible both Saturday and Sunday on the
Plains, with lightning and gusty outflow winds the main risks.

Periods of snow will be possible along the Continental Divide
Monday through Thursday with minor accumulations expected. Strong
winds are likely on Tuesday across the San Luis Valley, east into
the Plains. Blowing dust may lead to hazardous travel conditions.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
