This Week in Colorado Weather: July 14, 2025

July 14, 2025 / Ben Castellani

Monsoon season may have officially started earlier this month, but it’s off to a sluggish and lack-luster beginning across Colorado. Boulder has seen frequent storms—yet little meaningful rain—and wildfire smoke from the Western Slope and neighboring states is starting to pool to our west. A cold front arriving Tuesday night will bring cooler temps and a bump in thunderstorm chances for Wednesday, followed by a promising shift toward a more classic monsoonal setup Thursday through the weekend ahead with continued daily storms. This week, we’re tracking some heat, smoky haze, and hopefully, a few solid soakings of rain.

Forecast Update: Boulder hit 101° for the first time in 13 years yesterday, but (somewhat) cooler air and storms are moving in!

Wednesday brought historic heat across the Front Range, with Boulder hitting a record high of 101°F—the city’s hottest day in over a decade. A weak cold front has since cooled things off slightly, ushering in a good chance of storms the next few days as well. Sunday into Monday turn drier and hotter again as reverse monsoonal flow sets up, potentially stifling our typical summer storm pattern for a bit.

If you’ve got outdoor plans in the coming days, here’s what to keep an eye on.

Monsoon season kicks off right on time this week, bringing a steady stream of moisture from Mexico into the Southwest and central Rockies. While daily storm chances are on tap for the Front Range, coverage looks hit-or-miss, with Wednesday shaping up to be the warmest and driest day. Expect highs ranging from the 70s to mid-90s as the pattern evolves. We also need to keep an eye on the forecast heading into Fourth of July weekend as scattered storms will be in the mix.
