The July Fourth holiday will be hotter than a firecracker with Monday’s temperature inching toward 95 degrees before afternoon storms roll off the mountains.
The morning will be sunny with clear skies before the heat causes conditions to change as air flows over the mountains. There’s a slight chance of afternoon thunderstorms for the urban corridor after noon, with rain most likely happening after 3 p.m., said Evan Direnzo, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service Boulder.
Isolated thunderstorms could bring wind gusts up to 35 miles per hour in some places, Direnzo said.
Good morning, and Happy Independence Day!
Have plenty of water on hand for those outdoor celebrations, as it’ll be another very warm day across the lower elevations.
A few PM t-storms are expected again, but should be east of the urban corridor by 8 or 9 PM. #COwx pic.twitter.com/dU5mBErJQH
