PUEBLO, Colo. – Warm days and crisp evenings will headline the first full week of October across southern Colorado, offering a classic stretch of fall weather perfect for leaf viewing, pumpkin patches, and outdoor events.
According to the National Weather Service in Pueblo, Monday will bring cooler highs near the mid-60s before temperatures climb again through midweek. Winds will stay light, though brief gusts could stir dust near I-25 during afternoon drives. Drivers should watch for areas of light fog early Tuesday, especially on Monument Hill and the Pikes Peak region, where visibility could briefly drop before sunrise.
Skies remain mostly sunny Tuesday through Thursday, with highs rebounding into the upper 70s and low 80s. The warm, dry stretch will help local farmers with late-season harvest work and make this week ideal for yard cleanup or early Halloween decorating.
By late week, subtle changes return to the mountains as another weak system approaches. According to NWS forecasters, showers and a few thunderstorms could redevelop over the Continental Divide by the weekend, though Pueblo and nearby plains should stay dry and mild.
Residents should enjoy this window of stable weather before colder fronts begin marching south later in October. Keep hydration and sun protection handy for outdoor activities, and plan early morning drives with possible fog in mind.
