SCATTERED AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
-
An upper-level disturbance, rich with moisture from the remnants of
tropical cyclone Kay, is propagating across the intermountain west
supporting a favorable environment for scattered showers and
thunderstorms across the District.
-
High temperatures today will reach the upper 70s to low 80s, with
surface dew points in the upper 40s to low 50s. Moderate rainfall is
expected, with a chance for stronger storms to produce small hail,
wind gusts up to 60mph, and briefly heavy rainfall.
-
As showers and thunderstorms taper off into the evening, skies will
gradually clear through the overnight with cool and mild conditions
expected into Friday. Overnight lows will drop into the mid 50's on
the plains with upper 30's to low 40's across the foothills.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Typical rain showers/isolated
thunderstorms will produce a trace to 0.2"-0.4" in 10-30 minutes. A
moderate to strong thunderstorms can produce 0.4-0.8" in 10-30
minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A strong thunderstorm or training of thunderstorm
cells has the potential to produce up to 0.8"-1.0" in 10-30 minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: Tomorrow will be a bit warmer with a slight chance for
afternoon to evening showers and thunderstorms. Highs will reach the
upper 70s to low 80s. The warming trend continues Saturday with high
temperatures reaching the mid 80s under clear skies. High pressure
ridging will build across the Great Plains next week, transporting
warm, dry air into the state. As a result, Sunday and Monday will be
sunny and uneventful with highs reaching the upper 80s to low 90s.

COOLER TODAY WITH A GOOD CHANCE FOR SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING
-
High-pressure begins to break down today, combined with left over
moisture from a tropical disturbance from the Pacific will bring a
good chance for rain showers/thunderstorms this afternoon and evening.
High temperatures today will reach a more seasonable upper 70's to low
80's this afternoon.
-
A few very weak isolated showers currently along the higher terrain,
will continue to increase as the morning progresses with thunderstorm
development likely along the Continental Divide by midday. These storm
will move SW to NE between 10-15mph through the District, with the
best chance for storms between 2-8pm with shower activity tapering off
between 8-10pm. These storm motions should help limit point rainfall
amounts. However with excess available moisture from the tropical
disturbance, a LOW chance for Message issuance today as some storms
have the potential for brief heavy rainfall, with the largest threat
being a quick 0.5" in 10-30 minutes if stronger storms are able to
develop.
-
As showers taper off into the evening, skies will gradually clear
through the overnight with cool and mild conditions expected into
Thursday. Overnight lows will drop into the mid to upper 50's on the
plains with upper 40's to low 50's along the foothills.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Typical rain showers/isolated
thunderstorms will produce a trace to 0.2" in 10-30minutes. A moderate
to strong thunderstorms can produce 0.2-0.5" in 10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A slower moving thunderstorm or training of
thunderstorm cells has the potential to produce up to 1.5" in 45-75
minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: This active weather pattern remains in place tomorrow
with another good chance for afternoon and evening rain
showers/thunderstorms, with a slight chance for overnight showers into
Friday. Temperatures will be slightly cooler tomorrow with highs
nearly 80 degrees in the afternoon. Warmer Friday as high temperatures
reach the low 80's with a slight chance for another round of afternoon
rain showers/isolated thunderstorms.

Heavy Precipitation Outlook
Flash Flood Prediction Program
-------------------------
HOT, HAZY, BREEZY AND GENERALLY DRY
-
High-pressure will hold today leading to another day with above
average temperatures as we once again flirt with 90 degrees this
afternoon. Hazy conditions will increase today, especially for
northern Colorado as wildfire smoke continues to increase from the
west moves into the region today. Winds will likely pick up through
the day as well with gust up to 25mph from the SSE this afternoon.
-
Clouds will be on the increase this afternoon as remnants from a
tropical storm start to move into the region from the SW. This will
bring a very slight chance for a few scattered rain showers/isolated
thunderstorms. However, with very dry conditions at the surface, with
dew points currently in the upper 20's, most if not all precipitation
will struggle to reach the surface today. The best chance for any
shower activity will be from 2-9pm, favoring the higher terrain along
the foothills and Palmer Divide at this time.
-
Mild and dry conditions are expected through the overnight as
temperatures drop into the mid 50's to low 60's on the plains with to
low to mid 50's along the foothills.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Typical rain showers/isolated
thunderstorms will produce a trace to 0.1" in 10-30 minutes. A
moderate rain shower/isolated thunderstorm could produce 0.1-0.3" in
10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A moderate to strong rain shower/thunderstorm is
able to develop and will have the potential to produce 0.3-0.8" in
45-60 minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: An uptick in moisture both at the surface an
upper-levels tomorrow will bring a better chance for widespread rain
showers/isolated thunderstorms, with the best chance for storm
activity tomorrow afternoon and evening. A slight chance rain showers
stick around through the overnight and into Thursday. Tomorrow's high
temperatures will drop into a more seasonable low 80's. Slightly
cooler Thursday with highs in the upper 70's to low 80's with another
chance for afternoon/eve rain showers/isolated thunderstorms with a
slight chance for overnight rain showers into Friday. Friday starts to
warm back into the low 80's with a slight chance for a few afternoon
rain showers/isolated thunderstorms, with skies clearing into the
evening.

Heavy Precipitation Outlook
Flash Flood Prediction Program
-------------------------
WARMER TODAY WITH MILD AND DRY CONDITIONS
-
High-pressure will start to build over the region leading to mild
and dry conditions throughout the day today.
-
Mostly sunny skies early as hazy conditions increase through the day
as wildfire smoke from the west and northwest makes its way into
Colorado. These hazy conditions will increase this afternoon and into
Tuesday, especially northeastern Colorado.
-
High temperatures will reach the mid to upper 80's on the plains
this afternoon with upper 70's to low 80's along the foothills.
Overnight lows will drop into the low to mid 50's in the District with
mild and dry conditions expected into daybreak Tuesday.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: No precipitation is expected
today or this evening.
A LOOK AHEAD: High-pressure holds through tomorrow, bringing a
continued chance for hazy conditions throughout the day Tuesday. A
weak disturbance moves into the region late Tuesday afternoon which
will bring a very slight chance for a few high-based rain
showers/isolated thunderstorms late tomorrow afternoon into the early
evening, however most precipitation will struggle to reach the
surface. An uptick in moisture Wednesday, due to a leftover topical
system from the Pacific, will bring the best chance this week for rain
showers/thunderstorms during the afternoon and evening with rainfall
chances tapering off through the overnight and into Thursday.

A COOL, CLOUDY AND DRIZZLY DAY
-
Conditions will be cool, cloudy and drizzly through the day today
with conditions slowly improving this afternoon and evening. Highs
today will only warm into the 40's over the foothills with low and mid
50's over the plains as cloud cover will remain in place all day.
-
A widespread light rain or mist/drizzle will continue through the
morning with conditions slowly drying out this afternoon and evening.
The more persistent precipitation will be through early afternoon then
coverage of light showers/mist/drizzle is expected to decrease this
afternoon and eventually dry out ahead of midnight tonight. Areas of
fog will develop after midnight and will persist into Sunday morning.
-
Total precipitation overnight has generally ranged from 0.25-0.75"
with isolated higher and lower amounts. Another 0.10-0.30" of moisture
is expected through the day favoring up-slope prone areas in and near
the foothills. Overnight lows will dip into the lower 40's over the
plains with some 30's for the higher terrain.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Light rain showers and
mist/drizzle will produce rainfall rates of a trace to 0.15" in 30-60
minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: Areas of fog early Sunday morning will give way to
sunny/mostly sunny skies allowing temperatures to warm into the 70's
to around 80 over the plains. Conditions will be dry District wide.

COOL AIR HAS ARRIVED! RAIN SHOWERS AND MIST/DRIZZLE TO FILL IN LATER
AFTERNOON AND CONTINUE OVERNIGHT
-
After record breaking heat over the past few days, cooler air has
arrived behind a cold front that moved through overnight. Temperatures
today will only warm into the 50's in the Front Range foothills with
readings in the 60's to around 70 degrees over the plains.
-
Conditions will trend dry through much of the day but there will be
a slight chance for a rain shower or very isolated weak thunderstorm
this afternoon after 2 or 3pm. If a thunderstorm were to develop it
would favor the foothills S of I-70 and over the crest of the Palmer
Divide over Douglas County. Clouds will increase as the afternoon
progresses with light rain showers and areas of mist/drizzle
developing towards sunset. Light showers/mist/drizzle will fill in
this evening and become widespread overnight as cooler air continues
to filter into NE CO. Areas of fog may also develop overnight and
persist into Saturday morning.
-
The majority of the precipitation will be light with prime time for
widespread shower activity from roughly 6 or 7pm this evening until
midday Saturday. Total moisture will likely range from 0.10-0.30" into
Saturday morning with isolated higher and lower amounts possible.
Temperatures overnight will dip into the 40's over the plains
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Rain showers and areas of
mist/drizzle will produce rainfall rates of a trace to 0.2" in 60
minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: An isolated thunderstorm is able to develop with
the potential to produce rainfall rates of 0.1-0.3" in 10-30 minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: Cloudy and cool with light rain showers and areas of
mist/drizzle through the first half of the day Saturday. Conditions
will slowly dry out Saturday afternoon with dry conditions developing
ahead of midnight. Temperatures Saturday will be even cooler than
today in the 50's to around 60 over the plains with more cloud cover.
Drier and warmer for Sunday.

RECORD BREAKING HEAT ONCE AGAIN TODAY BUT BIG CHANGES ARE ON THE WAY
-
One more day of record breaking heat ahead of a cold front that will
move through later this evening and overnight. Highs this afternoon
will reach the mid 90's to around 100 degrees over the plains. Normal
high for Denver today is 83 degrees, record high for Denver today is
94 degrees. The record high should easily be broken by early
afternoon. There will continue to be haze/smoke from wildfires over
the Pacific NW reducing visibilities and making for colorful sunsets.
-
Generally dry conditions are expected through the day but there may
be a few isolated rain showers and possibly a high-based weak
thunderstorm ahead of the front late this afternoon and evening.
Better chances for rain showers will be behind the frontal passage
overnight into daybreak on Friday but any moisture expected to be
minimal.
-
Winds will be increasing overnight, becoming breezy at times from
the N at 10-20mph, gusting to 25-30mph or more briefly.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: Rain showers and high-based
weak thunderstorms will produce rainfall amounts of a trace to 0.2" in
10-30 minutes.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: A moderate to strong thunderstorm is able to
develop this evening with the potential to produce rainfall rates of
0.2-0.5" in 10-30 minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: Official high temperatures for Friday will likely be
reached just after midnight tonight as readings through the day will
generally be in the 60's to around 70 over the plains with 50's in the
Front Range foothills. There will be better chances for afternoon
showers and thunderstorms Friday afternoon with scattered rain showers
expected to fill in during the evening and continue overnight into
early Saturday morning. Friday evening to Saturday morning will be the
best chances for wetting rain. Heavy rainfall is not expected as the
cooler temperatures will likely favor stratiform rain showers versus
convective thunderstorms.

HAZY AND DRY WITH RECORD BREAKING HEAT
-
The heat wave will continue today with temperatures topping out in
the mid 90's to around 100 degrees over the plains with 80's in the
Front Range foothills. Normal high for Denver today is 83 degrees and
the record is 95 degrees. Haze/smoke from wildfires over the Pacific
NW will obscure the sun and may keep temperatures down a couple
degrees from their potential peak but the record high is expected to
be easily broken today at DIA.
-
Skies will be virtually cloud free but the haze will hinder
visibilities. There is no threat for precipitation with completely dry
conditions.
-
Temperatures will continue mild overnight only falling into the 60's
over the plains with 50's in the foothills.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: No precipitation expected today
or tonight.
A LOOK AHEAD: Another day of record heat on Thursday with highs
topping out in the upper 90's to lower 100's over the plains. A cold
front will move through during the evening and may generate a few
isolated rain showers or weak thunderstorms along with breezy winds.
Much cooler Friday-Sunday behind the front with highs in the 60's and
70's along with chances for showers and weak thunderstorms.

Heavy Precipitation Outlook
Flash Flood Prediction Program
-------------------------
HOT AND UNEVENTFUL CONDITIONS PERSIST
-
High pressure ridging remains anchored over the Great Basin,
supporting very hot and uneventful conditions along the Front Range
Urban Corridor through the next several days. Today will be sunny and
dry as high temperatures soar into the mid to upper 90s, possibly
reaching triple digits, with dewpoints falling to the mid 30's.
-
Similar to yesterday, water vapor imagery and forecast soundings
reveal a dry, stable airmass across much of the state. A few stray
showers may develop across the high country, but no precipitation is
expected in the District today or overnight.
-
Overnight will be mild and dry as lows drop into the mid to upper
60's on the plains with mid 50's along the foothills.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: No precipitation is expected
today or this evening.
A LOOK AHEAD: Clear skies are expected tomorrow with temperatures
reaching the upper 90s to around 100 degrees. The heat wave continues
Thursday with afternoon temperatures in the upper 90s to around 100
degrees under clear skies. An upper-level wave and associated cold
front will traverse the Rockies late Thursday night, positioning a
cooler airmass across the state. Afternoon highs are expected to reach
the low 80s on Friday with a chance for isolated showers and
thunderstorms.
