Scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected across large portions of western Colorado on Sunday, possibly including the Stoner Mesa fire and the Derby fire sites. Air quality health advisories will remain in effect for areas close to those two fires and smoke levels remain elevated Sunday morning. However we are cautiously optimistic that there will be a general improvement in air quality over the next 24 hours due to less fire activity from cloud cover, and perhaps wetting rains from the shower and thunderstorm activity.
