Look for a few lingering showers and gusty storms this evening with light rain, lightning and blustery winds.
We've seen 6 days in a row at 90-degrees or above and one more sizzling day is on the way Wednesday. Temperatures will remain above normal, with highs in the low 90s mid-week. We will start to see more monsoon moisture move into the state as the mountains will be the first to see some of the heavier rain. Look for scattered storms to move into the Denver metro area around 3p.m. and shift to the northeast where a few storms could turn severe Wednesday evening.
The heavier monsoon rains will likely push into the Denver metro area Thursday, with the potential for localized drenching rains and flash flooding. Thursday will also be the start of some relief from the heat as a cold front dips into the state. Look for daytime highs to only reach the low 80s in and around the Interstate 25 corridor.
The cool, wet weather sticks around Friday and continues through the weekend. Look for scattered storms each afternoon and evening Saturday and Sunday. Slightly warmer and drier weather returns early next week.
