This Week in Colorado Weather: August 21, 2023

August 21, 2023 / Andy

The week commences on the hot and dry side as a very strong and anomalous ridge over the central United States keeps much of Colorado locked into a scorching heatwave. Remnants from a tropical cyclone over the western Gulf of Mexico may influence our region later in the week as it interacts with a southward moving cold front. This should favor cooler temperatures and increasing chances for thunderstorms by the latter part of the week into the weekend. Read on for all the details of yet another semi-active weather week for us.
