Colorado Springs Braces for Cooling Trend and Approaching Storms
Colorado Springs and surrounding areas brace for a cooling trend and upcoming storms, with temperatures dropping 5 to 10 degrees. First storm expected on Thursday, a potentially heavier storm forecasted for the weekend. The National Weather Service is predicting a cooling trend for the first week of 2024 in Colorado Springs and surrounding areas, with temperatures expected to be 5 to 10 degrees colder than New Year’s Day. This is not only expected to affect Colorado Springs, but also Pueblo, Canon City, Woodland Park, Tri-Lakes, the Plains, Walsenburg, Trinidad, and the Mountains are expected to see a decrease in temperatures. The cooling trend is attributed to a storm brewing over New Mexico, which is expected to bring in cooler air and cloud cover. The first storm, set to arrive on Thursday, could potentially produce 1-3 inches of snowfall, but could potentially lead to a potentially more impactful storm over the weekend. The extended outlook suggests a calm Wednesday before the first storm and a brief respite with clearer skies on Friday and Saturday before the next system arrives.

As the first week of 2024 unfolds, residents of Colorado Springs and nearby areas brace for a predicted cooling trend and a series of upcoming storms. The National Weather Service reports a drop in temperatures, ranging a notable 5 to 10 degrees cooler than New Year’s Day. Colorado Springs is anticipating a high of 46 degrees and a chilly low of 22 degrees, setting the tone for the surrounding regions.
The cooling trend is not confined to Colorado Springs alone. Pueblo, Canon City, Woodland Park, Tri-Lakes, the Plains, Walsenburg, Trinidad, and the Mountains are all expected to experience cooler temperatures and a mix of partly cloudy mornings followed by mainly sunny afternoons. The cause of this shift in weather is attributed to a storm brewing over New Mexico, bringing in cooler air and cloud cover that is predicted to clear by afternoon.
The high country can look forward to a few more pleasant days before the arrival of snow later in the week. The first storm, slated to arrive on Thursday, isn’t forecasted to be a significant snow producer, but could potentially blanket the I-25 corridor with 1-3 inches of snowfall. This is a prelude to a potentially more impactful storm expected over the weekend.
A second storm, forecasted for the weekend, holds the possibility of heavier snow, gusty winds, and a further dip in temperatures. The extended outlook suggests a calm Wednesday before the arrival of the first storm, followed by a brief respite with clearer skies on Friday and Saturday. This period of relative calm will allow for some drying out before the next storm system arrives on Sunday.
