News, information and entertainment from the Kiowa County Press in Eads, Colorado, for the week ending November 16, 2019

We start the week out with some great weather - sunshine and 65 to 70 degrees for Monday and Tuesday.

A cold front moves in by Wednesday night and Thursday, dropping high temperatures into the 40s and lows to the 20s. The front is also expected to bring a few rain showers and snow showers.

We get into a sunny and drier weather pattern beginning November 24 and continuing through Thanksgiving, but the nights are going to be colder. I wouldn't be surprised if we dropped as low as 13 degrees Thanksgiving morning.
