This week will feature a continuation of the dangerous, unprecedented heatwave in the Pacific Northwest, but cool and rainy weather in the Front Range. Go figure! Our temperatures will remain below normal through the week with daily chances for showers and thunderstorms, helping to alleviate but not remove wildfire concerns across the state. We also discuss the status of monsoon season, the active tropical eastern Pacific, and what may lie ahead for the Fourth of July weekend.

⦁❶⦁ Rain returns to the forecast today with temperatures in the 80’s
⦁❷⦁ An even better chance of thunderstorms on Friday with heavy downpours and some hail possible
⦁❸⦁ An extremely dangerous heatwave is taking shape in the Pacific Northwest this weekend, but eastern Colorado will remain chilly
⦁❹⦁ Rain chances and below normal temperatures will persist into early next week
Unseasonably cool temperatures will exist on Monday following a cold front and upslope flow. However, the heat and smoke return on Tuesday and will stay with us most of the week ahead. We’re also watching the potential for a much-needed wet conclusion to the week.
As the heatwave reaches peak intensity on Wednesday, Boulder is well-positioned to obliterate the existing daily record high temperature for the date, maybe even before the lunch hour! However, increasing smoke from distant wildfires, more widespread clouds and outflows from developing showers could keep the city from hitting the elusive century mark. We review the climatology of rare triple digit heat, discuss why Denver is often several degrees warmer than Boulder on days like this, and take a look ahead to when the heat will end.
The heat is on this week as an anomalous ridge of high pressure dominates our weather pattern. Temperatures will soar into the upper 90’s to low 100’s most of the week, but a cooldown is in the pipeline. Let’s take a look at the outlook for the week ahead, what potential records could be shattered, and when the heatwave is expected to break.
If you can believe it, Friday’s high temperatures was only in the 70’s across the lower elevations. What a gorgeous day! However, the brief cooldown will quickly be replaced by yet another heatwave in Front Range Colorado. This one will be stronger and longer than the last. Let’s discuss just how hot it will get, our concerns about new wildfires, and when the heatwave may finally relax.
We hope you are ready for the summer heat! The scorching temperatures of late will continue for the next several days. The week kicks off with isolated storms, but rain chances lessen considerably as the week progresses. Our temperatures will largely rise into the 90’s every day, but a late-week cold front will take the edge of the heat. Read on to find out when our hottest day will be and how the upcoming weekend is shaping up.
