Tonight’s Forecast:
Quiet, but hot over the next few days across the state of Colorado. It was hard to generate a decent cloud today as moisture has all but left the state. Tonight, clear skies and crisp temperatures. Despite the lows being in the upper 50s and lower 60s, the dry air will make it feel cool and refreshing.
Monday will bring an abundance of sunshine and hot afternoon temperatures state-wide. The record high in Colorado Springs is 94. The record high in Pueblo is 100. We are looking to break those records. Dry air is helping to shoot our temperatures up during the day and keep us feeling cool during the night.

Extended Outlook:
As high pressure scoots to the south of us Monday night, moisture will start to creep back in for Tuesday afternoon. A few more clouds are likely with an isolated chance for an afternoon storm along the Palmer Divide. On Wednesday, a wave of energy, coupled with a plume of moisture, will trigger widespread showers and storms. Thursday looks to be much the same, with highs on both days being cooler, but still above average. By Friday and Saturday, we’ll clear out and dry out, and watch our thermometers reach near record highs once again by next Sunday.
