DENVER — We're wrapping up our Father's Day with above-average heat as temperatures across Colorado soar well into the 90s.

The I-25 corridor could see a stray shower or storm this evening, but most of the activity will be across the Eastern Plains.

A severe thunderstorm warning was issued for central Arapahoe and NW Elbert counties until 4:45 p.m. Strong wind gusts and quarter-size hail are possible.

A line of strong to possibly severe storms will develop between Fort Morgan and Limon, bringing potential for downpours, frequent lightning, damaging winds, and large hail.

As we enter next week, we'll stay hot and mostly dry on Monday, with, again, the potential for some isolated thunderstorms across the Plains.

A storm front will arrive Tuesday, bringing much cooler temperatures but also much more widespread showers and storms.

At the end of this upcoming week, the heat returns. Mid-to-upper 90s are expected, with triple digits possible in the Denver metro heading into next weekend.
