DRY AND WARM CONDITIONS ACROSS THE DISTRICT TODAY
High pressure ridging over the Desert Southwest will support a more
seasonal weather pattern in the coming days. Today will be warm,
sunny, and dry as high temperatures reach the low to mid 80s. Although
dewpoints will be in the mid to upper 40s, upper-level conditions will
be unfavorable for thunderstorm development.
STORM RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND DURATION: No thunderstorm activity is
expected today.
WORST CASE SCENARIO: An isolated shower develops over the foothills
and moves on to the plains producing a TR to 0.25” in 30-45 mins.
A LOOK AHEAD: The warming trend continues tomorrow with afternoon
temperatures in the mid to upper 80s and a slight chance for isolated
afternoon showers and thunderstorms. Monday will be hot and dry as
temperatures climb into the upper 80s to low 90s across the Front
Range Urban Corridor. On Tuesday, afternoon temperatures will reach
the upper 80s once again followed by scattered showers and
thunderstorms. Storms will persist into the evening and overnight
hours as a cold front works its way across the High Plains. Showers
will continue through Wednesday with cooler temperatures in the 70s.
