WASHINGTON COUNTY HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK

 This hazardous weather outlook is for northeast and north central Colorado.  .DAY ONE...Today and Tonight  Strong winds will develop in/near the Front Range Mountains and Foothills late tonight with peak gusts of 55-65 mph, and localized gusts up to 75 mph in/immediately adjacent to the foothills of Boulder County.  Snow will move into the mountains this evening, and then shift mainly to areas north of the I-70 Mountain Corridor and Summit County late tonight. Travel will become slick and hazardous in the mountains later this evening as temperatures fall and roads become snow covered. Only isolated to scattered light showers will occur on the plains, most of these closer to the Wyoming border.  .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday  Snow and areas of blowing snow will continue Monday, mainly in the mountains north of the I-70 Corridor and Summit County. Storm total accumulations by the time snow winds down late Monday will be 4 to 10 inches in the mountains from Rabbit Ears Pass northward. The northern Front Range mountains should see anywhere from 2-6 inches, with lighter amounts of 1-3 inches in the mountains of Summit County (most of that falling mid to late this evening). The strong and gusty winds along the Front Range and northern border area will gradually decrease Monday afternoon and evening.  Temperatures will turn cooler early next week and hold near or below normal through the remainder of this outlook. There will be another chance of rain and snow Thursday into Friday, but considerable uncertainty exists regarding the track and intensity of this potential storm system.  .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...  Spotter activation will not be needed. However, any reports of high wind or accumulating snow in the mountains will be appreciated.
