Warmer temperatures are expected today as the heat dome over the Desert Southwest begins to expand into the Four Corners region again. This morning will be sunny followed by afternoon temperatures in the low to mid 80s, dew points in the upper 40s to low 50s, with isolated showers and thunderstorms this afternoon. Storm motions will be fast, moving from west to east between 30 to 40 mph. Quick storm motions will help limit point rainfall amounts. Thunderstorm activity is expected to subside across the Front Range Urban Corridor by this evening. |
WORST CASE SCENARIO: Training thunderstorms have the potential to produce 0.50” to 1.00” in 60 minutes.
A LOOK AHEAD: Warmer and dryer conditions move into the state Tuesday with highs in the mid to upper 80s under mostly sunny skies with a slight chance for isolated afternoon showers and thunderstorms. The warming trend continues into the remainder of the week with sunny skies and highs in the upper 80s to mid 90s.
