Denver Weather: Cooling with rain chances increasing by midweek across Colorado

'T IT? >> LET'S GET THINGS OVER TO JOE ROOK , IT WAS A DECENT MORNING FOR A PARADE OUT THERE. >> WHEN YOU OPEN THE WINDOW, YOU HAVE THAT RELIEF, AND IT'S HOT. WILL DO IT AGAIN TOMORROW. ME SHOW YOU WHAT WE ARE WATCHING FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS. LABOR DAY RIDGES HERE. IT REMAINS TO SOUTH AND WEST. I WANT YOU TO LOOK UP TOWARDS A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM TO OUR NORTHWEST. WATCH THIS. IT IS A BATTLE. WHICH ONE WINS? IT LOOKS IT IS LOW-PRESSURE. IT DOES JUST ENOUGH TO SUPPRESS THIS HIGH, THAT MEANS COOLER AND EVEN UNSETTLED WEATHER BY WEDNESDAY. HERE WE ARE. WE DO LOOK TO SET UP RIGHT OVER MUCH OF THE SOUTHWESTERN U.S. IS ANOTHER WAY TO VISUALIZE THAT. I LIKE TO SHOW YOU THE TEMPERATURE TREND. 85 IS THE AVERAGE. FOR TODAY, WE HAD 91. TOMORROW IS MORSE A RINSE AND REPEAT. LOW-PRESSURE WEDNESDAY ALL THE WAY THROUGH FRIDAY, KEEPING TEMPERATURES IN THE 70s. AND 80s FOR THE BACK HALF OF THE WEEK AHEAD. NOW, OUT THE DOOR FOR NOW, IT STILL REMAINS HOT. 89 DEGREES OF THE 5:00 HOUR WITH CALM WIND UP TO THIS POINT. IT'S A MILD ONE. IT IS TOASTY FOR THE EVENING. A FEW HOURS LEFT TO GO FOR OUR RED FLAG WARNINGS, AND VERY LIMITED WITH THE INGREDIENTS THAT WE CHECK OFF. WE ARE JUST NOT SEEN WIDESPREAD WINS, SO ELEVATED FIRE CONCERNS, AS I DID TELL YOU, ACROSS JUST ABOUT ALL THE FRONT RANGE. HIGH PRESSURE IS PULLING JUST ENOUGH MOISTURE IN FOR THE HIGH COUNTRY TO PICK UP ON SOME OF THE SCATTERED SHOWERS. TALKING VERY HIT OR MISS STORMS, BUT THERE'S JUST A WALL OF DRY AIR. I DON'T THINK MUCH MAKES IT TOWARDS THE FOOTHILLS OR THE FRONT RANGE. IN FACT, I PUT A 10% CHANCE. I THINK IN FORT COLLINS WE COULD PICK UP A QUICK SPRINKLE. THAT'S THE MAIN WINDOW. OTHERWISE, WE CLEAR OUT FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE NIGHT. NO CONCERNS FOR A MAJORITY OF I-25. REALLY I-70 AND SOUTH FOR THE PLANES, YOU'RE JUST BONE DRY. LACK OF CLOUD COVER TONIGHT, ALL THE HEATING FROM THE SUN ESCAPES. BRINGS US TO 30s AND 40s FOR THE HIGH COUNTRY. MAYBE ONE OR TWO DEGREES ABOVE AVERAGE FOR THE EASTERN PLAINS. A MAJORITY OF US WILL STAY BELOW 60 DEGREES. HIGHS TOMORROW, TO THE HIGH COUNTRY, HOT TO THE WESTERN SLOPE, FOR THE EASTERN PLAINS. YOU GUESSED IT. 92 ACROSS THE METRO AREA. WE STAY JUST ABOUT AS DRY AS YOU CAN GET. VERY SIMILAR TO THE LAST FEW DAYS. REGIONWIDE, STATEWIDE FOR THAT MATTER, LET'S SAY WE ARE RUNNING FIVE, EVEN 10 DEGREES IN SOME LOCATIONS UP ABOVE AVERAGE. SUPERIOR AS WELL AS LAFAYETTE, YOU ARE AT LOW 90s FOR THE DAY TOMORROW. THIS IS REALLY THE NAME OF THE GAME. UPPER 80s, LOW 90s, 91 FOR THE SPECIFICS THERE. SUNNY THE START, INCREASING CLOUDS. THIS IS WHAT YOU NEED THROUGH BOULDER COUNTY AND NORTH. AS WITH A 10% CHANCE OF THE STRAY SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM WILL BE POSSIBLE. AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, WITH THAT, IF YOU CLOUDS DO LOOK TO MIX IN. ONE MORE HOT DAY TOMORROW, WASHER BEGINS TO DOMINATE EVEN INTO THE DAY ON FRIDAY. ONE THING I DO WANT TO SHOW YOU TOMORROW STORM CHANCES, VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT WE SAW TODAY. THE NORTHWESTERN CORNER, THIS IS A BIG CHANGE. ONE OR TWO STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE. THAT IS ONE AREA SO I'VE INCLUDED A 10% CHANCE AGAIN TOMORROW, BUT THAT IS DURING THE EVENING HOURS THERE. OTHERWISE, BY WEDNESDAY, STORM CHANCES MAKE A RETURN, AND IT'S BEEN A WHILE. LEVEL ONE OUT OF FIVE, THE LIGHT GREEN AREA, VERY LOW AND RISK. THE ONE OR TWO STORMS. YOU GET LARGE HAIL, DAMAGING WIND. NOT WIDESPREAD, NO NEED TO PANIC. OTHERWISE, FOR REMEMBER , THE RAMS BRINGING IT BACK HOME. WE LOSE OUR STORM CHANCES WE GET TOWARDS YOUR MONDAY. AND FOR THE MAJORITY AND REMAINDER OF THE WEEK AHEAD IN THE
