A Few Thunderstorms Over The Holiday Weekend... Temperatures will be a little warmer on Friday, with high pressure strengthening over Central Colorado. Most of our area will be in the 70s to low 80s, but quite a bit cooler up in Park County. Much warmer around Morrison with highs near 90. Precipitation will be low on Friday, with some activity over the Northeast Plains, but that's about it. Following a shortwave trough Friday night, we'll have a southeasterly flow, bringing in a bit more moist air and some upslope flow by Saturday. There will also be some modest wind shear, and steep lapse rates, with a sharp drop-off in temperatures with elevation. All of this supports a few thunderstorms or showers during the afternoon. Rain chances will be fairly low, but some storms will at least be possible Saturday afternoon. If you're planning outdoor activities, lightning, damaging wind and some hail will be the big issues. We'll see scattered showers and thunderstorms again Sunday afternoon. The next decent chance of rain may arrive Tuesday. |
