Colorado Springs, get ready for a rough Thursday! A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect, with 2 to 4 inches of snow and fierce wind gusts up to 50 mph expected. Slippery roads and poor visibility will make travel dangerous, especially during the morning commute. Don’t let this storm catch you unprepared!
The advisory starts at 3:00 AM and runs through 5:00 PM MST on Thursday. Snowfall will combine with strong winds, creating blowing and drifting snow that could further reduce visibility. Thursday’s high will struggle to reach 27°F, and overnight temperatures will plummet to 9°F.
Relief comes Friday, with abundant sunshine and a high of 38°F, but temperatures will remain cold into the weekend. Saturday may bring isolated afternoon showers, and another cold front could arrive Sunday, dropping highs to 34°F.
How to Prepare:
- Avoid unnecessary travel, especially during the morning rush.
- Drive cautiously if you must travel; keep an emergency kit in your car with blankets, water, and food.
- Stay informed—monitor updates, as conditions may change quickly.
Colorado Springs, bundle up and plan ahead for a challenging day on the roads. Stay safe and warm!
