Colorado Springs Forecast Brings Sunday Afternoon Thunderstorms to Weather Washington Dc
Weather Washington Dc covers a Sunday forecast that shifts from quiet overnight conditions to scattered thunderstorms by afternoon across southern and southeastern Colorado. The earliest storms can develop tonight along I-25, then the chance for showers and thunderstorms increases Sunday in several communities.
Colorado Springs has a low of 51 and a high of 69, with more cloud cover and afternoon storms that may bring gusty winds, heavy rain, and lightning. Pueblo is forecast to start Sunday in the mid-50s, reach 71, and see its best chance for showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon, when some storms may bring heavy rain and gusty winds.
Colorado Springs and Pueblo
Colorado Springs is one of the first places where the weather changes during the day. The forecast calls for a low of 51, a high of 69, and increasing thunderstorm chances in the afternoon, with gusty winds, heavy rain, and lightning among the listed hazards.
Pueblo follows a similar pattern, but with warmer daytime temperatures. Morning readings will be in the mid-50s, the high will reach 71, and showers and thunderstorms are more likely in the afternoon. Some of those storms may bring heavy rain and gusty winds.
Canon City starts Sunday in the mid-50s and warms to 73. The cold front that passed through will increase the chance for afternoon thunderstorms there, adding another area where timing matters for anyone planning to be outside later in the day.
Tri-Lakes to Trinidad
Tri-Lakes will begin with morning temperatures in the lower 50s and southeast winds between 5 and 10 mph. The chance for thunderstorms rises in the afternoon, and a few of those storms may bring heavier rainfall.
The eastern plains stay drier for longer, with overnight temperatures in the 50s and rain chances that do not pick up until later in the afternoon. Walsenburg and Trinidad have the best chance for rain in the afternoon, and some storms there could be stronger, with locally heavy rainfall, gusty winds, and some lightning.
Woodland Park starts with clouds in the morning and temperatures in the 40s, while the mountains see some showers earlier in the day before thunderstorm activity picks up in the afternoon. That staggered timing leaves the region with a split forecast: some places see storms early, while others wait until later in the day.
Monday and Friday
Monday brings a chance for some isolated thunderstorms before conditions start to dry out and temperatures warm. Wednesday is expected to be the hottest day this week, with some areas reaching the triple digits, and some rain chances pick up toward Friday.
For Sunday, the practical move is simple: watch the afternoon window, not just the morning start. The storms are not expected everywhere at once, but the forecast gives multiple locations a setup for heavy rain, gusty winds, and lightning later in the day.
