Southern Colorado braces for a wild weather showdown today—mostly warm and dry for most, but thunderstorms are brewing over the Raton Mesa and eastern plains later this afternoon. A northwest flow is drying out mountains and I-25 corridors, keeping storms at bay for places like Colorado Springs and Pueblo, though stray showers are still possible. The real drama? Heat and lingering moisture combining for strong storms packing hail, wind, lightning, and heavy rain—before they sweep east into Kansas after sunset, leaving clear skies overnight.

Colorado’s bold new CoCo passenger rail plan aims to connect Pueblo to Fort Collins, offering a stress-free alternative to congested highways and weather-related road shutdowns. Drawing lessons from past highway upgrades like the I-25 Gap Project, CoCo seeks to build a resilient, multi-modal transit future.

Manny Rutinel’s run for Colorado’s 8th district is heating up with a surprising endorsement from Senator Cory Booker — a vocal critic of factory farming — but Rutinel’s own history protesting animal agriculture could clash with voters in a region where cattle and agriculture drive the economy. Weld County alone generates over $2 billion annually from farming, and residents wary of past anti-agriculture policies may question whether Rutinel’s past fits their needs. As he campaigns, the loaded term “factory farming” and his activist roots could become major talking points in this agriculturally vital district.

A new Colorado report reveals how vital private donations are to the state’s well-being—without them, healthcare and education would suffer and poverty would rise. Replacing charitable giving with government funds would require hiking income taxes by over half. Colorado ranks second nationally in charitable giving, with 62% of residents donating, and third overall for community support. The report also highlights that government aid often gets lost in bureaucracy, with only 30% reaching those in need, while charities deliver over 70% of funds directly to the poor. It urges lawmakers to consider how their policies impact private giving—and reminds us that individual generosity is more efficient, personalized, and essential to strong, compassionate communities.

After 82 years, the Pueblo Chemical Depot in Colorado has officially shut down, marking the end of its storied role as a Cold War-era chemical weapons storage site—and the beginning of a new chapter for its 23,000 acres. But its history runs deeper than weapons: during WWII, it secretly housed thousands of Nazi propaganda artworks commissioned by Hitler, including massive paintings and sketches of Nazi leaders. Catalogued by Captain Gordon Gilkey, these controversial pieces were shipped to the U.S. for safekeeping, with the most extreme propaganda still locked away today. Now, as the site prepares for tech-driven redevelopment, its hidden past—once buried in bunkers—remains a silent, guarded relic of history.
