If you love Summer heat, today is your day! Sunshine and dry air are going to mix together to quickly propel temperatures well into the 90s and triple digits across southern Colorado. We'll stay dry through the afternoon and overnight hours with very warm air lingering into Saturday morning. Dehydration is going to be a real concern if you're working or hiking outside today without extra water, and be sure to pack your sunscreen.
