Phenomenal forecast headed this way
This warm pattern is expected to continue for the next several days, at least. Models are indicating an abnormally quiet stretch of weather through the beginning of March. Temperatures will be 10 to 15 degrees above average for the week.
Typically, during this time of year, temperatures average around the 50-degree mark, depending on the exact location. The end of February signals the end of Meteorological Winter and it will certainly feel that way as the month starts to wrap up.
Temperatures lately have been icy cold. Just last week, much of Southern Colorado was more than 30 degrees below normal as the region had to deal with an Arctic Blast. Moving forward, it looks like things are heading in the other direction. The temperature trend is highlighting some much warmer conditions for the end of the weekend and into next week.
Highs on Sunday will largely be in the 50s and 60s making it a great day to get outside and enjoy one of the first days of 'false Spring'. Everyone knows this won't last – not around these parts anyway.
A look at the next three days shows much the same: 50s and 60s with lots of sunshine to go around. A few different spots, such as Pueblo, may even graze the lower 70s with a nice stretch of warmth on the way.
If, however, you are looking for more snow, you may have to wait until the first few days of March are over. Of course, forecasting nearly 10 days out is quite difficult and a lot may still change. Models are hinting at a more active stretch of weather to kick off next month.
