Quintessential Colorado summer weather on tap for the next week

Thursday, June 18, 2015

For the first time in about 6 weeks, the forecast is easy! Beautiful dry and seasonably warm to hot sunny days and cool nights should grace our area for the next week as this weekend’s forecast shortwave will end up passing well north of our area with no sensible effect on our weather.

By the end of the next workweek, models show the possibility of our summer monsoon season starting as moisture is drawn northwards over Colorado from Old Mexico. The possibility of afternoon storms will likely increase heading into next weekend as this moisture settles over our state.
