We begin the first full-week of August on the hot side but trend slightly cooler as the week wears on thanks to monsoon moisture returning back into the area from the southwest. Read on for more details.

It’s hard to believe that August is now upon us! Where is the summer going? June and the first half of July were cooler than normal with summer barely making an appearance. The heat has really ramped up over the last three weeks though, including a ten-day stretch of 90-degree weather in Boulder. Should we expect more of the same in August? Read on as we examine Boulder’s climatology and consider the current state of the atmosphere to give our outlook for the next month.
The last week of July will feature very seasonal weather in the Front Range as a stationary ridge of high pressure remains across the southern Rockies. While initially suppressed, monsoon moisture will make its way back into Colorado by mid-week. As a result, hot and dry conditions will transition stormier as the week wears on.
Monsoon season has geared up across Colorado! As a result, the chance of thunderstorms will persist in our forecast throughout the week bringing the threat of heavy downpours and localized flooding at times. We also discuss a gradual warming trend with temperatures soon returning to the 90’s.
This week will feature very hot temperatures across the Front Range with some areas likely pushing into the triple digits. Storm chances will exist only early in the week. We cover the HEAT WAVE at-hand and the potential for monsoon moisture making it to Colorado just in time to cool us off for the upcoming weekend.
We have one more day of hail to deal with on Monday before a major pattern change curbs the threat of severe storms for the Front Range. Later in the week, a developing ridge across southern Colorado will usher in conditions very typical for July with temperatures definitely returning to the 90’s.
Get ready for round two of severe weather late Friday afternoon into the evening hours with large hail the primary threat to end the week. We also discuss the weekend forecast which includes plenty of storms and the potential for more hail.
Following a very warm end to June, the first week of July will continue the hot trend but also blend in late-day thunderstorms typical for this time of year. Read on for more details, including the outlook for the Fourth!
