7:00 AM | *Overall pattern remains relatively dry next several days*

Paul Dorian

The overall pattern remains relatively dry for the next few days with a slight variation coming in the temperature department. High temperatures today should peak near 75 degrees and then closer to 70 degrees on Thursday afternoon. Later in the week, it’ll turn a bit cooler following the passage of a cold frontal system, but remaining on the dry side.

7:00 AM | **A cool and unsettled start to the new work week with snow in the mountains**

Paul Dorian

A cool and unsettled start to the new work week with rain showers possible across the metro region and snow across portions of the nearby higher elevation locations. In fact, some of the mountains can receive accumulating snow this morning on the order of a few inches in some spots. The winds will be a noticeable factor today throughout the region with gusts to 40 mph possible.  The weather turns drier and warmer for Tuesday and Wednesday and then a mid-week cold frontal passage will bring colder temperatures back to the area for the late week.

7:00 AM | **A much colder air mass pushes into the region as we end the work week...rain will accompany the transition this afternoon and evening...some snow possible this weekend**

Paul Dorian

A much colder air mass will push into the area today and the transition will come with occasional rainfall during the afternoon and evening hours. In fact, it’ll turn cold enough by the early part of the weekend for some snow and there can be accumulations across the I-25 corridor and eastern plains. A warming trend begins late in the weekend and afternoon highs should return to 70+ degrees early next week.

7:00 AM | **Turns much cooler by the weekend and occasional rain is likely during the transition...snow showers likely in nearby higher elevations**

Paul Dorian

The overall pattern around here has been warm and dry in recent days, but important changes arrive by the weekend. A colder air mass will push into the area on Friday night and the transition will likely come with occasional rain. In fact, it’ll turn cold enough by the early part of the weekend for some snow shower activity across the nearby higher elevation locations. One other note, the comet will remain visible in the western sky during each of the next few evenings assuming favorable sky conditions and a “dark enough” environment...look to the west about 45 minutes after sunset.

7:00 AM | *Cooler conditions return for the late week and weekend with shower activity possible...comet remains visible in the western sky about 45 minutes after sunset*

Paul Dorian

The next couple of days will feature warm, dry and windy conditions which can enhance the risk of wildfires in the region.  Cooler temperatures are likely to return at the end of the week and continue through the weekend and there can some shower activity to go along with the cool down. One other note, a comet will remain be visible in the low western sky during each of the next few evenings assuming favorable sky conditions and a “dark enough” environment...look to the west about 45 minutes after sunset.

7:00 AM | *Some ten degrees cooler today, but warm, dry, and windy conditions return for much of the second half of the week...comet watch continues*

Paul Dorian

It’ll turn cooler today with afternoon temperatures some ten degrees lower than on Monday and highs near 70 degrees. The second half of the week looks warm, dry and quite windy which can enhance the risk of wildfires in the region.  Cooler temperatures are likely to return at the end of the week and weekend and there can be a few showers to go along with the cool down.

One other note, a comet should continue to be visible in the low western sky during each of the next few evenings given favorable sky conditions and “dark enough” environmental conditions….rough time period for viewing is 45 minutes after sunset.

12:15 PM (Monday)| *Another astronomical treat...a comet after sunset in the western sky during the next week to ten days with best views likely next few evenings...an odd feature*

Paul Dorian

Last week, it was the northern lights and now - for another astronomical treat - a comet should be visible to the naked eye during the next week to ten days or so in the western sky after sunset. Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS has now exited the sun’s glare having come closest to the sun in late September. It made its closest approach to Earth this past Saturday, October 11th, passing about 44 million miles away. It is now rising a little bit higher each night in the western sky and remaining visible for a little bit longer period; however, it is also going to lose some its brightness with each passing day.

7:00 AM | *Dry, warm conditions next few days...looks cooler by the end of the week*

Paul Dorian

The dry, warm weather pattern of recent days will continue for the next few days with plenty of sunshine on a daily basis and high temperatures generally well up in the 70’s. As a result of the continued dry conditions, the risk of wildfire activity will remain elevated through much of the week. It does look like a cooler air mass will move into the region at the end of the week.
