Heavy Precipitation Outlook
Flash Flood Prediction Program

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.
