Today’s Forecast:
We're in for another day of strong to severe thunderstorms, but severe weather looks weaker and more isolated compared to yesterday. We could still see large hail (quarter-sized), 60 mph wind gusts, and localized flooding for areas that saw heavy rain yesterday. Rain and thunderstorms will come in multiple waves today and likely last a lot longer into the late day and evening.
COLORADO SPRINGS: High: 88; Low: 58. Scattered strong, possibly severe storms will happen through the afternoon and early evening. Flooding is a large possibility in slower-moving storms, especially in areas like Security that saw heavy rain yesterday.
PUEBLO: High: 94; Low: 61. Scattered strong to severe storms are possible today with quarter size hail, strong winds, and localized flooding all possible. Flooding is more of a concern in areas that saw heavy rain yesterday.
CANON CITY: High: 93; Low: 64. Scattered strong storms are possible today but severe weather chances are on the low end. We could still see small to nickel-sized hail and gusty winds, and slow-moving storms could cause localized flooding for areas that saw heavy rain yesterday.

We're going to get much hotter over the next two days, and storms will become much spottier, staying mostly in and around the mountains. We'll start to see bigger storms back in the region by Sunday, with a chance for severe storms on Monday. We'll generally be a bit cooler by mid-week of next week, with more chances for rain and storms.
