A Red Flag Warning remains in effect from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. today for areas on the east side of RMNP. Stage 2 Fire Restrictions remain in effect within Rocky Mountain National Park. All campfires & charcoal briquette fires are not permitted anywhere within RMNP.
NWS Boulder@NWSBoulder

All-time record March heat, exceptionally low humidity, & breezy winds will continue to drive critical fire weather conditions on Sat. Hot temps & single-digit RH will spread across much of the forecast area & can contribute to extreme fire behavior. Avoid creating sparks! #COwx

⚠️ Temperatures will soar into the upper 80's/lower 90's across the plains and I-25 corridor today, with 70's-80's for high country communities as the heat wave peaks, setting new monthly records regionwide. Remember: Lack of acclimation early season increases heat risk! #COwx

Warm temperatures have led to increased avalanche danger in #RMNP. Avalanche conditions range from moderate to considerable. Backcountry travelers are urged to check the Colorado Avalanche Information Center's avalanche forecast & be prepared to adjust plans.

#CAICCMountains CON(3of5) Dangerous conditions exist and will worsen throughout the day. Start and end your day early and avoid large, steep north-facing slopes where you can still trigger a dangerous dry slab avalanche. colorado.gov/avalanche

#CAICSMountains MOD(2of5)You can trigger avalanches in the new snow, but the main concern remains triggering a large avalanche that breaks deep in the snowpack. The north half of the compass and east are most dangerous. Avoid shallow areas on steep slopes. colorado.gov/avalanche

Avalanche danger in #RMNP remains considerable near and above treeline. This means that avalanche conditions are dangerous and changing. Backcountry travelers are urged to check the Colorado Avalanche Information Center's avalanche forecast & be prepared to adjust plans.
CAIC:Statewide Info@COAvalancheInfo

#CAICSMountains CON(3of5) Avalanche conditions remain dangerous. You can trigger a large avalanche where you find a shallow spot on a slope. Safer travel options can be found on slopes less than about 30 degrees without overhead hazard. colorado.gov/avalanche
