The anomalous moisture today/tonight will for the most part remained pinned …

The flow turns more favorable for showers and storms this afternoon and evening, especially along/east of the Front Range.

The anticipated cold front quickly blew in this morning around 5:30AM bringing gusty north winds and a more moisture-rich airmass to the Front Range. The frontal passage can be seen on GOES-East's derived airmass animation: As of 6AM, the front was located just south of I-70, with wind gusts up to 40 MPH reported as the front passed through Fort …

The result has brought a swift resurgence of monsoon moisture …
