SMOKE TO INCREASE
As fire activity increases with the heat of the day and the strongest wind, smoke will become an issue again. With the wind more out of the south than on Monday, the Colorado Springs metro area is likely to have impacts later in the afternoon and through the evening. Smoke may move into the Denver area as well.
As of this writing there is an action alert day for the northern Front Range from Douglas Coutny northward. There is an air-quality alert for wildfire smoke for a number of mountain areas. No alerts are in place as of 10:45 for Colorado Springs, Pueblo, or Cañon City. You can find active alerts at: https://www.colorado.gov/airquality/colorado_summary.aspx
