Both Boulder (97 degrees) and Denver (99 degrees) broke daily record temperatures yesterday. We notched 97 degrees as well at our station (see weather history graph below). Slightly more cloud cover this afternoon should keep us a little cooler compared to yesterday. Don't get us wrong though, it's still going to be mostly sunshine. Expect temps to top out in the …

Thanks to a cold front passing through yesterday afternoon, high temperatures today will only reach the upper 70's under mostly sunny skies. High pressure is in control today so there will barely be a cloud in sight! Enjoy the last day of the weekend. What a great day to be outside basking in some great vitamin D!

Forecast today revolves around a cold front pushing through the region late this afternoon. Below shows the frontal position by 6pm this evening (white line), where the blue arrow depicts the northeast flow from Wyoming and Nebraska. This front is all thanks to a fast moving jet stream to our north and associated shortwave energy. The models have actually trended …

Warm and dry downslope flow is with us again today. Temperatures will be approaching the low 90's in most locations. A few clouds will develop in the afternoon but overall expect mostly sunny skies. We are watching a cold front pushing in tomorrow, which will lead to slight chances for storms Saturday evening. This front will eventually cool us off …

Another day of zonal (neutral) flow is on tap for today. The 500 mb vorticity map below shows a large fetch of due westerly flow stretching from northern California, across Colorado, and into the Great Lakes region. Under this zonal flow, conditions tend to be calm with near or slightly above normal temperatures. That will be the case today with …

Tranquil conditions will remain statewide as zonal flow ensues. Temperatures will creep up into the mid 80's under mostly sunny skies for the Metro area. Dew points in the 20's and 30's will produce very comfortable conditions out there. Our next chance of rain, albeit a slight one, comes Saturday afternoon and evening.

It looks like the Denver Metro dodged the severe storms yesterday. A few supercells did form in Weld County, dropping large hail and  spawning at least two tornadoes. Some of our team went storm chasing yesterday, capturing this image of baseball-sized hail from just across the border into Wyoming. Today will begin a streak of quiet weather across the Front …
