This Week in Colorado Weather: July 1, 2024

This week’s weather in the Front Range will feature a welcomed northwest flow pattern, one which will usher in cooler temperatures but unfortunately little in the way of rainfall as the monsoon remains at bay. Several disturbances will be tracking across northern Colorado but will have extremely limited moisture to work with resulting in most areas staying nearly bone-dry this week. While not good at all for the ongoing drought, this setup will allow for cool and beautiful conditions for the Fourth of July — just be mindful that fire danger is growing.

Our Memorial Day week starts off dry and pleasant for the holiday with no chance of rain on Monday and sunny skies. However, we’ll see daytime chances of isolated/scattered storms across the Front Range each day from Tuesday onward, including some severe storms mixed in at times.

Mother Nature will continue to pummel the western United States with storm systems this week, including plenty of activity here in the Front Range.
