- | Trough of low pressure remain in place over the state keeping the weather a little unsettled today over the District. Temperatures in the 40's over the plains currently will warm into the 50's to lower 60's this afternoon with readings 10-15 degrees cooler in the Front Range foothills. Normal high for Denver today is 74 degrees. Conditions will be generally dry this morning outside a few isolated mix/snow showers over far S Jefferson and Douglas Counties. |
- | Rain showers and possibly weak thunderstorms will begin to develop over the foothills and Palmer Divide between noon-2pm. Chances will increase for shower coverage over the plains after 2pm. There will then be isolated to widely scattered rain showers and weak thunderstorms possible into the evening. With the cooler temperatures precipitation will likely favor general rain with any thunderstorms being weak but capable of small hail with the low freezing levels. |
- | Best chances for precipitation will be through about 10pm but a few lingering rain showers may persist overnight with some wet snow for the foothills, mainly above 8,000ft. Tonight temperatures will drop into the mid 30s to around 40 over the plains. |
A LOOK AHEAD: Temperatures will tack on a few degrees to afternoon highs on Monday with readings in the 60's most areas over the plains. Monday morning will trend generally dry but by noon showers and weak thunderstorms will become likely. A modest chance for showers/weak thunderstorms will continue into Monday evening with additional rain showers expected overnight with some snow possible in the foothills (mainly above 8,000ft).
