COOLER TODAY WITH A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR RAIN SHOWERS/ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON, WITH RAIN SHOWERS THIS EVENING
-
A cold front moved through the region overnight effectively dropping
our high temperatures into a more seasonable mid 60's to low 70's on
the plains with low to mid 60's along the foothills.
-
Mostly sunny skies to start the day with clouds gradually increasing
throughout the day. A chance this afternoon for scattered rain showers
with a slight chance for an isolated thunderstorm if temperatures are
able to warm enough. Best chance for thunderstorm activity will be
from 3-7pm with rain shower chances possible into the overnight hours.
Any shower activity should remain minimal this afternoon and evening,
however a stronger storm cannot be completely ruled out favoring areas
east of I-25 at this time.
-
Skies will gradually clear into Tuesday morning with overnight lows
dipping into the low to mid 40's for the plains with low to mid 30's
along the foothills.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Typical rain showers will
produce a trace to 0.10" in 10-30 minutes. A weak to moderate
thunderstorm could produce 0.1-0.3" of rain in 10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A stronger thunderstorm or training of rain
showers/thunderstorms has the potential to produce 0.3-0.8" in 60-90
minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: Tuesday will remain cooler with high temperatures in the
mid to upper 60's along with mild and dry conditions. High-pressure
returns Wednesday bringing high temperatures back into the 70's with
continued dry conditions. Similar conditions both Thursday and Friday
as high temperatures reach the low 80's.

HOT AND GENERALLY DRY WITH A VERY SLIGHT CHANCE FOR LATE EVE/OVERNIGHT
RAIN SHOWERS
-
Another unseasonably hot day today as high temperatures reach the
mid 80's to low 90's on the plains with mid to upper 80's along the
foothills.
-
Mostly sunny skies with clouds increasing into the evening. A few
mountain rain showers/isolated thunderstorms are expected this
afternoon, with a very slight chance for scattered rain showers late
this evening and through the overnight and into Sunday morning. Most
areas are expected to stay dry, however a few sprinkles to light rain
showers cannot be completely ruled out at this time. Best chance for
any sprinkles to light rain will be from 9pm until daybreak Sunday.
-
Overnight lows are expected to drop into the 50's along the plains
with low to mid 40's along the foothills. A few areas of fog may be
possible in the early morning hours Sunday before conditions quickly
warm with highs in the 80's to around 90 once again.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Typical rain showers will
produce a TR-0.10" of rainfall in 10-30 minutes. A moderate rain
showers could produce 0.1-0.2" of rainfall in 10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A thunderstorm or brief moderate to heavy rain
shower has the potential to produce 0.2-0.5" in 60 minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: Sunday will be hot, mild and dry with temperatures
reaching the 80's to around 90. A cold front moves in Monday
effectively dropping high temperatures to around 70 degrees. This cold
front will also bring a decent chance for rain showers across the
district, however the threat for heavy rain will be minimal at best.
Temperatures remain in the 70's Tuesday with dry conditions expected
throughout the day. Wednesday begins to warm as high temperatures
return to the 80's with mostly sunny skies.

-------------------------
COOL AND OVERCAST MORNING WILL BECOME WARM AND SUNNY THIS AFTERNOON
-
A dip in the upper-level jet passed over northern Colorado early
this morning, dragging a cool front across the plains. This front has
positioned a cool air mass over eastern Colorado, raising dew points
into the 30's across the District. Although there is a bit more
moisture than yesterday, no precipitation is expected today.
-
Overcast across The District this morning will become clear this
afternoon. High temperatures will reach the mid 70's.
-
Tonight will be clear and dry with temperatures around 50 degrees.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: No precipitation is expected
today or this evening.
A LOOK AHEAD: Ridging over the Desert Southwest will continue this
weekend, bringing warm and dry conditions to the plains once again.
Tomorrow is expected to be sunny and dry, with high's reaching the mid
to upper 80's. Similar conditions are expected on Sunday, with clear
and sunny skies, and temperatures in the mid 80's. A new system is
approaching Colorado from the Pacific Northwest and is expected to
reach the central Rockies by Monday. While there is still some
uncertainty regarding the path of this wave, long range models are
beginning to agree on a more seasonable cool down across the Colorado
Springs area early next week.

DRY AND GUSTY CONDITIONS TODAY AHEAD OF COOL FRONT OVERNIGHT
-
Today will be hot, very dry, and sunny with gusty conditions across
The District. Upper level ridging and lack of moisture will inhibit
convection in the area today and tonight.
-
Clear skies and 700mb thermal ridging along the plains will produce
high temperatures in the upper 80's to low 90's across The District.
Dew points will drop into the 20's this afternoon, resulting in
relative humidities in the teens. A fire weather watch has been issued
for northeast Colorado.
-
Winds are expected to increase ahead of tonight's cool front with
wind gusts reaching 20 mph. Cloud cover will also increase ahead of
the frontal passage, but no precipitation is expected in The District
overnight.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: No precipitation is expected
today or this evening.
A LOOK AHEAD: A dip in the upper level jet will pass over northern
Colorado overnight, dragging a weak cool front across the plains. This
front will bring slightly cooler temperatures to the area, lowering
Friday's high temperature to the mid 70's. While no precipitation
across the District is expected at this time, a small moisture
increase on Friday will reduce fire weather conditions across the
state. Ridging over the Desert Southwest will continue this weekend,
bringing warm and dry conditions to the plains once again.

WARM, DRY, AND CALM CONDITIONS TODAY
-
Today will be dry and warm with sunny skies as broad scale
subsidence moves into the Colorado territory. Very dry conditions with
dewpoints around 30°F are expected across The District as well. These
conditions will obstruct development of showers and thunderstorms
today and tonight.
-
A warming trend across the state begins as a high-pressure system
builds over the Desert Southwest. Temperatures are expected to reach
the upper 80âs to low 90âs across The District today.
-
Skies will remain mostly clear through this evening and overnight.
Dew points will increase slightly after dark to around 35°F, but
synoptic scale subsidence will once again inhibit development of
showers in the area.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: No precipitation is expected
today or this evening.
A LOOK AHEAD: Tomorrow looks similar, with temperatures once again
reaching the upper 80âs to low 90âs under clear skies and gusty
winds. Downslope winds and extremely dry conditions are expected to
increase the fire weather risk across parts of north and central
Colorado on Thursday. A dip in the upper-level jet will pass over
northern Colorado early on Friday, dragging a weak cool front across
the plains. This front will bring slightly cooler temperatures to the
area, lowering Fridayâs high temperature to the mid 80âs. While no
precipitation across The District is expected at this time, a small
moisture increase on Friday will reduce fire weather conditions across
the state.

SEASONAL TEMPERATURES WITH AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORMS FAVORING AREAS
SOUTH
-
The tail end of a disturbance is moving through the District this
morning and may produce an isolated rain shower or sprinkles over the
next couple hours. No meaningful precipitation is expected from the
isolated morning showers. This afternoon another disturbance will move
into the District and result in a chance for thunderstorms, favoring
areas S and E with lesser chances N and W.
-
Although not all areas of the District will experience a storm today
the storms that do manage to develop have the potential to become
moderate to briefly strong. Relatively fast storm motions from WNW to
ESE at 20-30mph will keep any heavy rainfall brief. Stronger storms
may also contain gusty winds and hail. Best chances for thunderstorms
today will be S of I-70 and in particular over Douglas County between
noon and 6pm. Beyond 6pm conditions are expected to be drying out from
W to E.
-
Temperatures today will be seasonal in the upper 70's to lower 80's
for highs over the plains with readings about 10 degrees cooler in the
foothills around 8,000ft. Normal high for Denver today is 81 degrees.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Rain showers will produce a
trace to 0.1" of rain. Weak to moderate thunderstorms will produce
rainfall rates of 0.1-0.3" in 10-30 minutes. Strong thunderstorms will
have the potential to produce 0.3-0.8" in 10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A slower moving strong thunderstorm or training
of strong thunderstorm cells may result in up to 1.5" of heavy rain in
45-75 minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: A stretch of dry weather will develop over the District
on Wednesday and continue through the end of the week. Temperatures
will be running above seasonal averages in the upper 80's to lower
90's over the plains.

Heavy Precipitation Outlook
Flash Flood Prediction Program
-------------------------
COOLER/BREEZY WITH ISOLATED AFTERNOON AND EVENING THUNDERSTORMS
-
A cold front is currently moving through the District from N to S at
this time and should shave a couple degrees off of high temperatures
today with readings in the upper 70's and lower 80's over the plains.
An isolated rain shower may develop later this morning over the higher
terrain with the plains remaining generally dry until this afternoon.
-
Chances for isolated showers and thunderstorms will increase over
the plains between 1-3pm. Chances for shower and thunderstorm activity
will then persist well into the evening but the storm coverage will be
spotty and not everyone will experience a shower or thunderstorm
today. Best chances look to be N areas of the District and in
particular over Boulder County. Surface moisture is only modest behind
the front leading to thunderstorms that develop generally being weak
to briefly moderate in intensity.
-
Upper level steering winds from W to E at 15-25mph will keep the
showers and thunderstorms moving along keeping precipitation durations
brief and overall rainfall amounts on the light side. After 10pm the
best chances for shower activity will be pushing S and E but a stray
rain shower cannot be ruled out during the overnight period.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Rain showers will produce a
trace to 0.1" of rain. Weak to briefly moderate thunderstorms will
have the potential to produce 0.1-0.3" of rain in 10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A slower moving briefly strong thunderstorm will
have the potential to produce rainfall rates of 0.2-0.6" in 10-30
minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: Cooler Tuesday as another disturbance moves through with
highs in the 70's over the plains with a good chance for widely
scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms during the day. Best
chances for more persistent showers/thunderstorms appear to be over
the southern half of the District and in particular over Douglas
County. Depending upon available surface moisture some storms Tuesday
may contain moderate to brief heavy rainfall. A stretch of dry weather
is then expected Wednesday through Friday with plenty of sunshine and
temperatures running above normal for this time of year.

Flash Flood Prediction Program
-------------------------
SEASONAL TEMPERATURES WITH ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCATTERED AFTERNOON
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS
-
After record heat yesterday, temperatures will be more seasonal
today in the low to mid 80's for highs over the plains with 70's in
the Front Range foothills. Normal high for Denver today is 82 degrees.
There is a very slight chance for a rain shower this morning, favoring
northern areas of the District but most of the activity will hold off
until this afternoon as a weak upper level disturbance passes through.
-
Showers and isolated to widely scattered thunderstorms will become
possible over the foothills before noon and over the plains between
noon-1pm. Best chances for shower and weak to briefly moderate
thunderstorm activity will be between 1-7pm. After 7 or 8pm generally
dry conditions are expected for the remainder of the evening and
overnight period.
-
Showers and thunderstorms that develop today will be fast moving
from SW to NE between 20-30mph. There is more moisture to work with
than yesterday resulting in some storms potentially producing a brief
period of moderate rainfall. Any heavy rainfall today is expected to
remain well east of the District where moisture is deeper.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Rain showers will produce a
trace to 0.1" of rain. Weak to moderate thunderstorms will have the
potential to produce rain rates of 0.1-0.4" in 10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A strong, slower moving thunderstorm is able to
develop with the potential to produce brief heavy rainfall of 0.4-1.0"
in 15-45 minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: A weak cool front is expected to move through tomorrow
morning and shave 1-3 degrees off of highs from today's readings.
There will continue to be a modest chance for isolated to widely
scattered showers and thunderstorms but the timing will be pushed back
with best chances between 3pm and midnight. A more robust upper level
disturbance will move through on Tuesday and keep temperatures in the
70's for highs and result in a good chance for a much needed wetting
rainfall over the District.

Heavy Precipitation Outlook
Flash Flood Prediction Program
-------------------------
RECORD BREAKING HEAT OVER THE PLAINS WITH ISOLATED AFTERNOON TO
EVENING STORMS POSSIBLE
-
Another hot day with at or above record breaking temperatures with
afternoon highs expected to reach the low to mid 90's. Current record
at DIA is 93 degrees which was set in 2018.
-
A slight chance for showers and thunderstorms this afternoon and
through the evening hours ahead of tonightâs cool front. Very little
available moisture will limit precipitation today, with any high-based
isolated rain showers or thunderstorms expected to mainly produce
gusty winds.
-
Overnight will be mild with lows dropping into the upper 50's to low
60's for the plains with upper 40's to low 50's along the foothills.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Typical isolated rain
showers/thunderstorms will produce a TR-0.10" in 10-30 minutes. A
moderate thunderstorm potential to produce 0.1-0.2" in 10- 30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A strong thunderstorm, or training of rain
showers has the potential to produce 0.2-0.5" in 30-60 minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: A welcomed cool front will sweep across the state
tonight, offering some relief from the exceptional heat. On Sunday,
high temperatures are expected to reach the mid 80âs with another
round of afternoon to evening isolated showers and thunderstorms. The
cool front will also displace lingering wildfire smoke through the
weekend, but smoke conditions are expected to worsen once again early
next week as upper-level flow across the intermountain west becomes
more zonal. On Monday, temperatures will warm into the upper 80âs to
low 90âs with afternoon to evening thunderstorms ahead of another
cool front Monday night. Tuesday is expected to be stormy with
scattered showers and thunderstorms across the Front Range Urban
Corridor, and temperatures reaching the mid 70âs.
