DENVER — It's a sizzling start to the week across Colorado with highs in the upper 90s around Denver and triple-digits on the plains. And relief form the heat won't arrive until the end of the week.
A Heat Advisory is in effect until 9 p.m. Tuesday for much of the Denver metro area. Drink plenty of water, stay in the shade, and don't forget the sunscreen if you're in the sunshine!
Temperatures will stay hot, with mainly dry conditions for the next two days. Expect highs in the mid- to upper-90s and triple digits across eastern Colorado again on Tuesday.
Typically in late-June, highs are in the mid-80s in Denver. Above average temperatures are expected each day this week. In fact, we'll be much closer to the record high than the norm.
A few gusty, late-day storms and showers will be possible, but the risk of severe weather is low Tuesday.
It'll still be warm on Wednesday with highs in the mid-90s around the Urban Corridor. Look out for a few gusty thunderstorms in the mountains and metro area with some severe cells possible on the eastern plains.
It'll continue cooling off a couple of degrees at a time! Temperatures will dip into the low to mid 90s on Thursday and Friday, with a better chance of afternoon storms. Look for low to mid 80s this coming weekend.
