More wet weather is on the way through Saturday, before a big change in the weather pattern starts on Sunday.

After Thursday's storms, Denver has now seen 2.77 inches of rain so far this month. It is now the 20th wettest June ever on record and more heavy rain is possible tonight and Saturday. More rain is quickly adding to that total!

The weather will be active with showers and thunderstorms likely producing heavy rain. A flood watch is in effect across the Denver metro and the Front Range. Rainfall rates could be around 1 to 2 inches per hour. Highs will only be in the upper 60s to around 70 degrees again Saturday.

Father's Day looks quite a bit warmer, expect highs that are close to our seasonal average in the middle 80s with plenty of sunshine. Monday and Tuesday will also be warm and dry with highs in the upper 80s - maybe even the first 90 degree high for the year!

The warm weather will hold for all of next week with temperatures in the 80s and just a few afternoon and evening thunderstorms.

A heatwave will begin over Colorado and across most of the western United States late next week and will continue through the end of June. Highs in the Denver area will be well into the 90s!
