Look for a few showers and storms in the mountains this evening. Some of these may drift onto the plains, but don’t expect much more than gusty winds or a brief sprinkle.
We''ll see mostly cloudy skies across the state overnight with lows in the upper 30s to low 40s along the Urban Corridor.
The weather pattern gets a bit more active mid-week as southerly winds bring in some moisture, especially to northeast Colorado. Weak thunderstorms may pop up Wednesday afternoon around the Denver metro, but the best chance for rain and severe storms will be east of Fort Morgan and Limon. In fact, there's a marginal risk for areas mainly east of Interstate 25 to see large hail and damaging wind gusts from storms Wednesday afternoon and evening. Keep the cars in the garage, if you can!
Temperatures remain mild in the Denver metro with highs in the mid to upper 60s Wednesday. Gusty winds and a few brief rain showers will be the biggest threats out of any thundershowers near the city.
A cold front moves through the region early Thursday, bringing more clouds and a better shot at rain showers and a few thunderstorms, mainly in the afternoon and evening. Rainfall should stay light but temperatures will cool down a bit, with highs in the low to mid 60s.
Friday looks like the coolest day of the week, with highs only in the upper 50s to low 60s across the plains. Look for mostly cloudy skies and scattered showers and storms across the state.
Warmer and drier weather return for the weekend as temperatures soar back into the mid to upper 70s. Blustery winds will move in, especially on Sunday, creating high fire danger for the Denver metro and plains.
