DENVER — Major relief from the heat is finally here! A strong cold front will continue to drop into Colorado overnight, ushering in much cooler temperatures along with scattered showers.
A Severe Thunderstorm Watch is in effect until 10 p.m. across the northeastern plains. The biggest threats will be for large hail, damaging 60+ mph wind gusts and heavy downpours. Look for a few scattered showers and storms around the Denver metro area this evening.
Most of the storms move out by 11 p.m., leaving mostly cloudy skies in their wake. Overnight lows will drop into the upper 50s and lower 60s along the I-25 corridor.
We're in for much cooler, and a bit more comfortable conditions across Eastern Colorado Thursday. Daytime highs will significantly drop into the upper 60s and low 70s by the afternoon. Look for mostly cloudy skies along with widespread scattered showers throughout the day.
Friday will be very similar to Thursday with highs in the mid 70s. Showers and storms are still likely throughout the day, so keep the umbrellas handy.
Temperatures will warm a bit over the weekend into the low-to-mid 80s with a few thunderstorms in the late afternoons and early evenings.
And just like that the 90-degree heat makes a comeback early next week.
