The slow movement will produce one more gorgeous day before a weak trough pushes in. The trough is visible above, located over Oregon today. With the same airmass in place and not much changing from yesterday to today, we’ll see temperatures creep up a degree or two, into the low 70’s across the Plains with mostly sunny skies.

That trough reaches eastern Colorado tomorrow. It will bring a brief cool down, light mountain snow, a slight chance of rain and windy conditions to the Plains Tuesday evening.
