Starting tonight, we’ll see more thunderstorms in the mountains, especially later in the evening. Some of that activity might drift onto the plains, but it’s a small chance. If a storm does pop up east of the mountains, expect some gusty winds and possibly a quick downpour.

Late tonight into Friday morning, a new round of showers and a few thunderstorms could develop, especially near the I-25 corridor and the northeast plains. These might happen around sunrise or shortly after. Some storms could be on the stronger side in far northeast Colorado.

mostly clear.

This weekend looks warm and a bit stormy in the afternoons and evenings. It’s going to be hotter than usual, and with more moisture in the air, that could lead to some stronger storms, especially on Saturday. It won’t be a washout, but keep an eye on the sky later in the day.

Looking into early next week, the warm weather continues with more chances for afternoon and evening storms. A weather system passing by on Sunday might stir things up a bit, but by the middle of the week, it looks like we’ll settle into a hotter and drier pattern.
