Colorado’s scorcher of a weekend is finally giving way to cooler, stormier skies—and not a moment too soon. After record-breaking highs in Boulder and Denver, a refreshing cold front kicks off the week with below-normal temps and a solid chance for showers and storms, especially Tuesday when things could turn severe. But don’t get too cozy—the heat will make a comeback late in the week into the weekend. Here’s what you need to know about Colorado’s weather during this final week of June.
May 2025 brought cool, rainy days to the Front Range, nurturing lush, green landscapes ahead of what is expected to be a hot and dry summer. The month also featured striking weather events, including a few picturesque tornadoes nearby and multiple rounds of snow blanketing the high Foothills. Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during May and how it relates to climatology.
So far this Memorial Day Weekend has brought a mix of welcomed rainfall and intense thunderstorms across the Front Range, with some areas seeing over two inches of rainfall and even hail. While the first half of Monday should be dry for holiday festivities, scattered showers and storms will develop in the afternoon with brief downpours, gusty winds, and lightning. The unsettled pattern continues throughout the week ahead, with Wednesday and Thursday offering the highest storm chances, fueled by lingering atmospheric energy. However, as we approach the weekend, a shift toward warmer and drier conditions is expected, with highs climbing into the lower 80s and fewer storms impacting the region.
Sunday’s storms brought a slew of severe weather to northeast Colorado, including a photogenic tornado east of Denver. This week will be relatively quiet, but there is still plenty to discuss. Monday will stay cool and showery, but drier and warmer weather is on-tap for the rest of the week. However, a weekend trough will threaten to shake things up again—could the Memorial Day Weekend forecast include stormy skies? Read on for all the details.
