With the exception of a weak cool front around midweek, it’s all about a high pressure ridge that will keep us warmer than average and dry with virtually no clouds until the weekend. We are also keeping an eye on the wildfire smoke over the Pacific Northwest and discuss when it may return.
What an absolutely incredible week of weather we experienced across the Front Range. From sizzling record heat, to explosive wildfire growth with towering pyrocumulus clouds blocking out the sun and ash raining from the sky, to unprecedented early season snowfall, to eventual record cold.

The week will begin with near-record high temperatures continuing across the Front Range. However, we will see a gradual downward trend in temperatures thanks to increased clouds and scattered storms over the state. We are also tracking a few cold fronts on the horizon that look to finally breakdown that persistent ridge leading to much cooler temperatures next week.
The never-ending heat is back for another encore performance this week. Slight chances for rain will exist, but overall we’re in for another mainly dry week with scorching temperatures. Mid-level winds will usher in more smoke across the area as well. Read on for all the details.
