Today’s Forecast:
After record highs yesterday we’ll run a few degrees cooler today. It’ll still be hot with highs in the 80’s and 90’s. A little more sunshine in the mix today as drier air moves in. Winds will be strong during the second half of the day and fire danger will be an issue. More Red Flag Warnings today along and west of I-25. Areas of the far eastern plains will have the only potential for moisture today. A couple of the showers/storms that develop near the Kansas line could be on the strong to severe side, with winds and hail being the main concerns.
