Tonight's Forecast:
June has started off how March ended. Wet. Storms this afternoon will continue moving southeast tonight, in a pattern that has been rinse-and-repeat. A couple of weaker showers and periodic clouds remain possible later tonight although the main thunderstorm action should be done for the day as there is no longer energy available to sustain storms once the line moves past. The late evening storms last night were due to the collision of multiple outflow boundaries from decaying storms. Tonight with more organized - but still weak - flow in place, we're more likely to see a few remnant showers and sprinkles moving off the mountains later on.
Colorado Springs forecast: Low: 55; High: 83;

Extended outlook forecast:
Storms will be widespread on Monday afternoon in southern Colorado, as a boundary moves north. Isolated severe storm potential will exist over the eastern plains counties. That said, as has been the case over the last several days...some spots won't get a storm. A cold front will arrive in the evening, bringing in heavy rain overnight into Tuesday morning. Once that activity wraps up, more storms will form over the mountains Tuesday afternoon with scattered storms moving over I-25. Temperatures Tuesday will be cool for June - in the 60s for most areas - depending on how much sunshine your city gets.
The week remains unsettled as a whole - more storm chances continue Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday afternoons and into next weekend. The daily trend favors less and less storm coverage from Wednesday to Friday, going from widespread, to isolated and more focused in the mountains. But there's no fully dry day in the forecast.
