For Tuesday, a more significant storm will move into the region, with precip developing along the CONTDVD by later in the afternoon. At this time this storm will have the highest impacts across the Divide (especially San JUans), and possibly parts of the Pikes Peak region (including N El Paso county).

For the rest of the week, things appear unsettled. as a strong jet will be over the state during this period. How much impactful weather we get later in the week will depend on how that jetstream tracks over the region. The farther south the jet tracks the better chance of precip we will see, especially over the mtns and possibly the plains. \/Hodanish
