This Week in Colorado Weather: July 8, 2024

July 8, 2024 / Andy

Say goodbye to those 70s we had on Sunday. Record-setting heat is queuing up later this week as a strong ridge will build into the area from the Desert Southwest. With this, expect progressively warmer daytime highs as the week wears on, eventually soaring into the lower 100s by Friday and into the weekend ahead. Alongside the heat, there will be very limited chances for rain this week, with any storms that do manage to form in this hot and dry airmass being mainly confined to the Mountains and Foothills.

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.

This week in the Front Range will feature a rollercoaster ride of temperatures from 90s to the 70s and back again! There will also be increasing rainfall chances for the mid to late-week period as remnant moisture arrives from a tropical system in the Gulf of Mexico — this is not the beginning of our seasonal monsoon just yet. Temperatures will slowly ramp up back into the 90s for the upcoming weekend. Read on for more details.
