Heat advisory issued for Denver area and other parts of Colorado as record breaking heat dome approaches
Several days of record-breaking heat are expected in Denver, and the National Weather Service has issued a heat advisory that will go into effect on Friday. The advisory extends into Saturday, and it's for the Denver metro area as well as parts of Colorado's Front Range to the north and south and for much of eastern Colorado as well. Temperatures will be in the range of 100 to 103 degrees as a dome of unseasonably warm heat covers most of the western United States. Those highs will be by far the hottest temperatures of the year so far. Because of the dangerous heat, both Friday and Saturday will be First Alert Weather Days. There's also an air quality alert in place for all of Colorado's Front Range. The heat will elevate ozone levels around Denver and the urban corridor of the Front Range making the air unhealthy for sensitive individuals with breathing issues. Currently that alert is set to last through Thursday at 4 p.m. but it may be extended beyond that period for the duration of the heat wave. File photo of Denver in 2020 Getty Images/iStockphoto The heat wave first oozes into the central Rocky Mountain region on Thursday. Expect temperatures in the upper 90s. Thursday's record is 98 degrees, and the projected high for Denver Thursday is 97. With wind coming into the state out of the southwest there will also be a red flag warning on Thursday in far western Colorado. The heat records in Denver for both Friday and Saturday are 99. Denver's high on Friday is projected to be 101 and the high temperature on Saturday is projected to be 100. Each day, the hottest temperatures will be between 11 a.m. and 6 p.m. It's advised to stay hydrated if you have to be outdoors during this time, and to find shade. Otherwise, finding a cool place to stay indoors is recommended.

Weekend heat builds across Colorado
After a week of unsettled weather, Colorado is in for a drier weekend—though not entirely quiet. And while summer officially starts next week, the heat is already making itself at home. CBS While most of the Front Range will remain dry, don't be surprised if you see a few high-based showers or feel a sudden gust of wind this weekend. These showers likely won't bring much rain to the ground, but gusts up to 50 mph are possible—especially Saturday and Sunday afternoons. CBS Thunderstorms will mostly stay confined to far eastern Colorado. The best chances for severe storms—capable of producing golf ball-sized hail and 70 mph winds—are from 5 to 10 p.m. Saturday in areas east of a line from Fort Morgan to Limon. CBS Temperatures will soar into the 90s across the Denver metro area through Monday, with a strong ridge of high pressure keeping things hot and mostly dry. CBS Tuesday brings a short-lived break from the heat as a cold front sweeps through. Highs will drop into the 80s with a chance for showers and storms. By Wednesday, skies clear again and temperatures stay below 90°F one more day. By Thursday, the heat returns with a vengeance. Highs in the 90s dominate the forecast late next week, with some areas possibly reaching the low 100s next weekend (June 21–22), just in time for the official start of summer.

Heat builds across Colorado and storm chances return
Isolated showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop late this afternoon. While rain will be light or even absent in many locations, the bigger concern is strong wind gusts. These storms may produce outflow winds up to 50 mph. High pressure will dominate our weather, pushing temperatures well above average through the end of the week. Highs across the Front Range will reach the mid-80s to low 90s today through Friday, with even hotter conditions likely this weekend. Sunday is currently projected to be the warmest and driest day, with temperatures reaching the mid-90s in some locations. CBS Wednesday and Thursday bring an increased chance of showers and thunderstorms, primarily over the mountains and foothills. The storms will be fueled by a modest uptick in moisture and instability, severe storms are possible across the Eastern Plains on Thursday afternoon. CBS Friday is shaping up to be the most active day for thunderstorms. A mix of increased instability and moisture could bring a risk for a few strong to severe storms, particularly across the northeastern plains. CBS The weekend will be dominated by a ridge of high pressure over the Rockies, keeping things mostly dry and hot with daytime highs in the 90s. CBS
