-	Temperatures will tack on another degree or two today as high pressure continues to strengthen aloft. Highs this afternoon will top out in the low to mid 90's over the plains with 80's in the Front Range foothills. The haze continues but does not seem as bad this morning compared to previous days.
-	A warm layer of air aloft will eliminate the chances for any thunderstorm activity today over the District with dry conditions area wide. There will be a few fair weather clouds that develop this afternoon over the mountains and foothills.

STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: No precipitation expected today or tonight.

A LOOK AHEAD: Another dry day expected on Wednesday over the plains with possibly a higher elevation thunderstorm in the afternoon. Temperatures will continue to warm with highs in the mid to upper 90's with isolated areas possibly touching 100 degrees briefly. Thunderstorm chances return to the District on Thursday and Friday but coverage is expected to be isolated and storms relatively weak. Much cooler Saturday behind a cold front with highs in the 80's over the plains. Moisture will increase and thunderstorms will be very capable of producing heavy rainfall Saturday afternoon/evening. Threat for heavy rainfall continues Sunday and begins to decrease Monday.
