DENVER — The monsoon flow is increasing over Colorado once again and there will be a weak cold front that will slip into the state, bringing a return of afternoon thunderstorms not only for the mountains, but also Denver and the eastern plains.

The thunderstorms will not be severe, but will produce some locally heavy rainfall. Any storms developing over the various burn scars will have the potential to produce flash flooding.

There will be a better chance for showers and thunderstorms on Friday as the weak cold front slips into Colorado from the north. Temperatures will cool down a bit on Friday, with highs in the low to mid 80s across the Denver metro area.

Saturday will be warmer again, with a few isolated thunderstorms on Saturday, expect highs around 90 degrees.

The Broncos will face off against the Vikings Saturday evening at 7 p.m. The weather will be warm with just a slight chance for a thunderstorm early. Readings will be in the low 80s at 7 p.m. and in the middle 70s by 9 p.m.

Sunday and Monday will turn a bit cooler once again with a better chance for thunderstorms. By the middle of next week, the weather should become hotter and drier with highs back in the lower 90s.
