Colorado — Crisp air settles across southern Colorado this morning as Thanksgiving travel ramps up, and a quiet sky over Pueblo offers one of the calmer windows for travelers heading out today. Roads remain dry, but the breeze carries a cool bite that signals a pattern change waiting in the wings.
According to the National Weather Service, sunshine will hold through Thanksgiving Day, giving drivers a stable start before a broader U.S. cold front begins building. Residents preparing for early morning departures should pack layers, keep warm drinks on hand, and stay alert for shifting winds through midday. While conditions stay mild now, forecasters note an early sign of winter as colder air gathers across the northern Rockies — a setup that could influence return travel after the holiday.
Sunny weather holds Wednesday with highs in the low 50s, followed by a calmer, chilly night near the mid-20s. Thanksgiving Day looks pleasant and seasonably cool, reaching the mid-50s with steady sun and light winds. It’s ideal for short regional drives, outdoor setups, or early decorating.
To be fair, the real attention shifts toward the days after Thanksgiving. A larger U.S. cool-down begins Thursday night and spreads south and east through the weekend. Some regions of the country may see heavy snow develop from November 25 through December 3. While Pueblo stays dry for now, models hint at a minor flurry chance north of the city late Saturday into Sunday as temperatures dip near freezing — a classic early-season winter tease.
