MOUNTAINS: High: 80s; Low: 50s. It'll be another smoky and hazy day in the mountains, especially for the Front and Rampart Range. Smoke will be thicker up north around Denver with mostly dry skies in the region. We could see a stray storm or two in the southern Sangres that moves south into New Mexico late today.
Extended Outlook:
A low pressure area tomorrow in the Pikes Peak Region, specifically the Palmer Divide and east into the plains, would allow for scattered strong thunderstorms. Severe weather is possible tomorrow if storms fire up just right, mainly near El Paso and Lincoln Counties.
Monsoon moisture will push storms through the mountains over the weekend with fewer storms expected from I-25 east into the plains. Friday and Sunday are two decent chances for storms along I-25, especially near El Paso county and down on the Raton Mesa.
