Overview
- A powerful cold front blasted Southern Colorado, dropping Colorado Springs from the mid-50s to the 30s with wind chills in the 20s.
- Snow showers target the Pikes Peak region around midday, with 0 to 2 inches in Colorado Springs and 1 to 4 inches in Monument mainly on grass and rooftops.
- Roads are expected to stay mostly wet, though brief heavier bursts could turn Monument Hill and nearby grades slick and slushy.
- Winds pose the main hazard on the plains and peaks, with west to northwest gusts near 40 to 50 mph on the southern Plains and 50 to 60 mph in the mountains.
- A Freeze Warning runs from 10 p.m. to 8 a.m. across much of Southern Colorado, with lows in the teens and 20s and guidance to cover plants and drain sprinklers.
