The atmosphere over the last several weeks has been transient across the western United States, with frequent (but weak) systems always keeping us on our toes. We haven’t had an extended period of persistent weather in quite some time. That changes this week as a ridge builds in across the region, bringing a sense of consistency to the forecast once again. Be that as it may, the ridge won’t bring entirely dry and sunny weather. Read on for our full outlook of the week ahead.

Summer is the one time of year when you don’t need us meteorologists. You already know the weather for today (and everyday) will start sunny, warm into the 90’s, then promptly cloud up and produce a brief storm which generates a “just okay” rainbow before another stunning Colorado sunset. If it feels like we’ve been enjoying a much nicer, less rainbow-filled summer than normal, you’re not alone, nor imagining things. It’s been dry. Historically dry.
We discuss the official return of drought to Colorado and provide our thoughts on the outlook heading into September.
After a very dry stretch through much of July, this week will feature a strong shift in the weather pattern that will allow for monsoonal moisture to spread in from the southwest, leading to chances for thunderstorms each day. Outside of the storms, temperatures will also warm each day with highs climbing back into the 90’s. Read on for our full forecast and which days we expect the best likelihood of monsoon rainfall.
With Independence Day now upon us, summer is in full-swing across the Front Range. We discuss the weather-week ahead (spoiler: it’s going to be hot!), and give our thoughts on when those monsoon rains might finally show up.
The El Niño that has been with us for the last seventeen months has finally met its demise. The atmosphere is in the process of responding to this change as we speak. We provide an update on the situation as we begin our transition into a La Niña pattern. We also review how well our late-winter predictions verified. Read on for our full outlook for the remainder of the summer season.
A large part of the last few weeks have seen hot weather with many days in the 90’s, and even our first 100-degree day! This week, the ridge that has been a mainstay will slowly edge to the south and west of Colorado. This will lead to cooler temperatures and increasing chances of rain and storms, primarily from Wednesday through Friday. Read on for our complete week-ahead forecast.
Following a weekend of searing heat, this week’s temperatures will feel a little more comfortable at times. Despite the large-scale ridge remaining in place across the Southwestern USA, it will weaken a tad, and as a result, open the gates for a pair of backdoor cold fronts to enter northeast Colorado. Continue reading for our complete weekly outlook, including when we may see record heat, and which days bring the chance of rain to cool us off.
We hope you enjoyed the hot, humid, and at times, stormy weekend. The first part of the week ahead will feature continued thunderstorm activity, some of which will be severe. By Wednesday, the heat wave returns. Just how hot will it get? Continue reading for our full outlook of the upcoming week.
