Colorado’s scorcher of a weekend is finally giving way to cooler, stormier skies—and not a moment too soon. After record-breaking highs in Boulder and Denver, a refreshing cold front kicks off the week with below-normal temps and a solid chance for showers and storms, especially Tuesday when things could turn severe. But don’t get too cozy—the heat will make a comeback late in the week into the weekend. Here’s what you need to know about Colorado’s weather during this final week of June.

Front Range Colorado is bracing for a scorching stretch ahead as a powerful heat dome settles in, sending daily highs into the 90s and even near 100°F come Friday. Fire danger is also set to rise with bone-dry downslope winds ramping up in the days ahead. But there’s relief on the horizon: a cold front will finally break the heatwave by Monday, bringing much cooler temps, a shot at rain, and the kind of weather we’ll certainly be ready for!
Get ready for a classic early summer setup—plenty of warmth, a hint of storm potential, a bit of wildfire smoke, and maybe even the year’s first 90-degree day(s) for the Front Range. While the week starts off dry and sunny, a few scattered storms will make an appearance midweek, adding a little variety to the forecast. By the weekend, the heat cranks up as a strong ridge sends hot air northward into Colorado.

Get ready for a preview of summer! Near-record heat will kick off the week across the Front Range, with highs soaring towards the mid to upper 80s. These temperatures could tie or break existing records, making for a sizzling start to the week. But don’t worry—relief is already on the way! A mostly dry cold front will roll through around midweek, cooling things down to more seasonable levels. While a few stray showers might pop up later in the week, the better chance for wet weather arrives over the upcoming weekend.

While this week’s weather in the Front Range won’t be as flashy as last week’s snowstorm, there is still plenty to discuss! A gradual pattern shift through the week will see warm and dry conditions get replaced with cooler and wetter weather in time. There will also be some fire danger and severe storms this week across eastern Colorado. Read on for all the details.
Following a rather benign stretch of weather this week so far, a strong storm system will bring winter weather back to the entire Front Range in the days ahead. After a warm day with fire danger on Thursday, a cold front will blow through in the early evening hours paving the way for a prolonged period of upslope-enhanced precipitation lasting into early Saturday. While the predominant precipitation type will indeed be snow with this storm, even across the lower elevations, there will be a lot of melting happening limiting the overall impacts and potential snow accumulation. We discuss the latest storm details, how much moisture will fall, and how much wet snow this will translate into for the area.
