- Burn scar flooding threat will be on the increase Tuesday onward.

SHORT TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/

Issued at 101 PM MDT Fri Sep 11 2026

For the rest of today, dry and warm. There is an outside chance of a shower or very isolated thundershower over the higher elevations of the Pikes Peak region late this afternoon or early this evening.

Later this evening, a trough of lower pressure will move across the region and this will bring in a bit cooler air for tomorrow over the area. Temps tomorrow will be about 4 to 8F cooler than todays high temps.

With the upslope flow developing tomorrow, we will see a bit better chance of some isolated showers and thunderstorms. Best chances will be over the southwest mtns. A few shower may push off the mtns onto the I-25 corridor late in the afternoon.

LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/

Issued at 101 PM MDT Fri Sep 11 2026

For Sunday into Monday, we will warm up again, with temperatures being similar to today temps. However, pop chance will be quite a bit better for Sunday over the CONTDVD. and we may see a good chance of storms regionwide Monday afternoon and evening, especially if a cool front can get in here during the afternoon and bring showers and storms to the plains during Monday evening.

Both deterministic and statistical guidance shows a sharp drop-off in temps for Tuesday. The statistical guidance is more confident today then it was yesterday as there is much less of a range in temps and it cools it off a good 15F over the plains with temps just a bit cooler over the mtns/valleys.

Pops on Tuesday are going to be in the scattered to likely category, especially along the greater mtn/plains interface as synoptically forced upslope flow develops over the region. The combination of the monsoon plume aloft and moist sfc upslope will bring a threat of heavier rain to the region, and burn scar flooding will be on the increase.

Wednesday into late week we will continue to see a good chance of rain over the region as another front will push through late WED and THU and the monsoon tap will continue.

Overall, next week looks cooler and wetter over the region. \/Hodanish
