Discussion
A rather moist and unseasonably cool period has set up for the state as a late season monsoonal plume of air hangs around the southern Rockies through much of the week. The upper level ridge of high pressure that sat on top of the area last week has shifted eastward into the southeastern part of the country and this has opened the door for moisture to advance northward into the southern Rockies. As a result, showers and thunderstorms are in the forecast each day right through the week and into the weekend and high temperatures will generally be confined to the cool 70's.
