Discussion

Large upper level ridge will remain in control of the region’s weather right through the week and into the weekend. This pattern will generate continued very warm temperatures for the southern Rockies, perhaps in record-breaking, and enough sub-tropical moisture will be around to allow for the chance for showers and thunderstorms each day into the weekend. By early next week, the high will gradually shift eastward and this should shave a few degrees off of the highs and it could open the doors for a cool frontal passage by around Tuesday on next week.
