Cold Start to a Warm Week

Decision Weather

March 16th:

Chilly weather to start the week today! Expect highs in the mid 40's with wind chills below 0 possible. Warm weather is expected for the rest of the week however, with highs rising from the mid 70's Tuesday to almost 90 by Friday. There is a very slight chance of patchy blowing dust Tuesday afternoon along I-70 (10-20%), so be sure to keep updated on the local forecast if you have travel plans! Highs are expected in the 80's for Wednesday and Thursday with Friday turning hot with dry conditions, possibly raising fire concerns.
