LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) - Today is a First Alert Weather Day, for snow and gusty wind. This won’t be the latest snow on record, but it certainly is a change of pace after weeks of warm to hot days. And, thankfully, we are getting widespread showers on parched land across West Texas.

After a fairly mild Monday, the active weather is picking up across Colorado on Tuesday. The mountains are littered with Winter alerts, and southeast Colorado is under the threat of high fire danger going into Tuesday afternoon.
