Extreme fire danger is a threat across the Front Range and eastern plains again today, a day after several fires broke out in southern Colorado.
These strong winds will also blow dust around, reducing visibility, according to the National Weather Service out of Boulder.
The NWS said Friday morning that"the winds may be a bit stronger than yesterday, especially over the southern I-25 corridor."A red flag warning — which means critical fire weather conditions are currently present or will be soon — will impact much of the southeast plains, Denver metro area and Palmer Divide beginning at 11 a.m. through the evening. This includes Boulder County, Jefferson County, Elbert County and Lincoln County. This warning also affects South Park.
In addition, a high wind warning will go into place at the same time — 11 a.m. — until 7 p.m. in Larimer County and northwest Weld County. A separate warning includes Crowley County, Otero County and eastern Las Animas County. Meanwhile, the mountains are under a winter weather advisory through 6 p.m. Friday as an expected 3 to 9 inches of new snow falls. The mountains will also see strong wind gusts.
