- | High-pressure continues to dominate over the region today leading to continued hazy and dry conditions throughout the day. |
- | Once again high temperatures will be in the 90's along the plains with mid to upper 80's along the foothills. The current record high temperature for today is 98 degrees at DIA and we will be close to hitting that in some areas this afternoon. Mostly sunny skies currently with clouds increasing this afternoon and into the evening. |
- | Overnight will be mild as low temperatures drop into the upper 50's to low 60's for the plains with low to mid 50's along the foothills. |
A LOOK AHEAD: Not much change in the overall pattern to start the day Wednesday as high temperatures once again reach the low to mid 90's on the plains. A strong disturbance is poised to makes its way into the District late Wednesday with a chance for afternoon rain showers/isolated thunderstorms ahead of the disturbance, with rain shower chances continuing through the evening and overnight into early Thursday morning. As the disturbance moves over the District Thursday, high temperatures will cool into more seasonable low to mid 80's with another good chance for afternoon rain showers/thunderstorms, with a decent chance at this time for isolated moderate to heavy rainfall. Storm chances linger through Thursday evening with rainfall tapering off after midnight. Friday will remain cooler with high temperatures in the upper 70's to low 80's on the plains with another chance for afternoon rain showers/isolated thunderstorms.
