Get ready for a preview of summer! Near-record heat will kick off the week across the Front Range, with highs soaring towards the mid to upper 80s. These temperatures could tie or break existing records, making for a sizzling start to the week. But don’t worry—relief is already on the way! A mostly dry cold front will roll through around midweek, cooling things down to more seasonable levels. While a few stray showers might pop up later in the week, the better chance for wet weather arrives over the upcoming weekend.

While this week’s weather in the Front Range won’t be as flashy as last week’s snowstorm, there is still plenty to discuss! A gradual pattern shift through the week will see warm and dry conditions get replaced with cooler and wetter weather in time. There will also be some fire danger and severe storms this week across eastern Colorado. Read on for all the details.
Hint: All of the clues are related to Boulder, Denver, and/or Colorado weather. OK, well most of the clues…
As we transition deeper into autumn season, Colorado weather continues to keep us all on our toes. This past weekend, a slow-moving storm system that was expected to bring widespread light precipitation to the Denver Metro area ended up being a tad underwhelming, with the bulk of the moisture staying to our south. While Boulder and Denver received only minimal rainfall, areas of southern Colorado and New Mexico experienced heavy rainfall which led to deadly flash flooding. Looking ahead, this week promises relatively quiet weather for the Front Range, with just a brief cool down scheduled for late week. We’re also tracking an interesting storm in the pipeline for next week which could bring sub-freezing temperatures and potentially some snow to the area just in time for Halloween.
September was an exceptionally warm month in the Front Range, with most areas landing more than four degrees above average. This was our fourth consecutive month that finished on the north side of normal. Outside of a single soaking rain event, the month was also extremely dry with drought expanding further across the area. Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during September and how it relates to climatology.
