Sunny and hot across Colorado today, but wildfire smoke will start to move back in from the West Coast.

MOUNTAINS: High: 70s; Low: 50s. Hot with increased wildfire smoke and mostly dry skies. There will be some storm action along the summits of the southern Sangres, but much of the moisture will stay west of the San Luis Valley in the La Garitas and San Juans.
Extended Outlook:
Hot and smoky skies will continue to dominate the forecast through Tuesday and Wednesday of this upcoming week. Wednesday should be the hottest day of the week with much cooler air moving in from Thursday through Saturday.
Strong to severe storms will be possible in Thursday in the plains, that is if storms actually leave the mountains. The western slope of Colorado will probably see the best moisture of the week.
