Today is the first day in a while that we don't have to mention rain in our forecast for Boulder/Denver at all. A large scale ridge is built across much of the United States, with dry air now in place across Colorado. Look for sunny skies this morning, with spotty afternoon and evening clouds. Highs today will be warm, right …

Happy Friday! A rather timid day is expected across the region today with limited moisture as an upper-level high pressure builds across the Four Corners. Extremely isolated storms will be possible in the High Country, but dry elsewhere. Look for high temperatures in the mid to upper 80's with partly sunny skies. All eyes turn towards soon-to-be MAJOR Hurricane Harvey headed …

Subtropical moisture is having a tough time pushing into northeast Colorado...a much tougher time than models were showing earlier in the week. Because of this, storms have been very isolated the last few days and this trend will continue today. The top graph below shows the dew point tracker for Tuscon, AZ. Notice that for the first time since early …

Our winds yesterday had a northwest component to them, which helped to bring smoke from the Pacific Northwest to the Front Range. BoulderCAST Station reported Haze/Smoke throughout the entire day yesterday (see below). Today the flow will shift to be more west-southwesterly in the mid levels of the atmosphere. This will lead to less smoke overall and more moisture advecting into …

Monsoon moisture is slowly beginning to work its way back into northeast Colorado. The driving force is a large, cut-off low pressure system offshore from California. However, a bulk of the thunderstorm activity will once again be south of the Denver Metro today, with just isolated storms across our region. Look for about a 15% chance of rain later this …

The weather pattern on this Sunday will be under the influence of a plume of moisture streaming northward from Arizona and New Mexico, which is tied to an area of low pressure off the coast of southern California. At the same time, a weak cold front is sliding down from the northeast this afternoon bringing upslope flow. Before the front …

We're back to summer today! Highs will soar into the lower 90's this afternoon under sunny skies giving way to afternoon Partly Cloudy skies. A few isolated storms will develop over the High Country and drift onto the Plains, but most of us should again stay dry. Those storms that do reach us will occur in the early evening hours.
