Heat will become the main forecast story for the next few days.
Monsoon moisture will move farther west, and that means very few storms in our region. We could see a spotty late day storm or two in the mountains along the Front Range, but most towns and cities out of the high county will stay dry today.
We will be hot with highs in the 90s today, but even hotter weather is expected Friday and Saturday.
