ANOTHER HOT, SUNNY AND DRY DAY TODAY
-
Close to record breaking heat today as we approach the mid to upper
90's on the plains this afternoon. The record high temperature today
at DIA is 99 degrees set in 2013 and there should be at least a few
areas to reach that temperature today, especially areas around
Downtown Denver or any other areas with an abundance of asphalt.
-
Breezy to gusty conditions expected this afternoon with winds from
the S and SW for the most part with gusts generally up to 30mph,
although stronger gusts will be possible at higher elevations along
the Palmer Divide and in and around the foothills.
-
Dry conditions are expected to continue today and into this evening.
Overnight lows will drop into the upper 50's to low 60's on the plains
with low to mid 50's along the foothills.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: No precipitation is expected
today or this evening.
A LOOK AHEAD: A weak, dry cold front will will in through the
overnight effectively bringing Friday's high temperatures into a more
seasonably low to mid 80's. No precipitation is expected with this
cold front. Saturday's high temperatures jump right back into the low
to mid 90's with dry conditions persisting. Similar conditions to
start the day Sunday with high temperatures back into the low to mid
90's with a very slight chance for an afternoon rain shower/isolated
thunderstorm although the largest threat would be gusty winds and some
lightning as most precipitation looks to evaporate before making it to
the surface.
