For sure, northern front range did very well this week. Even Thornton did quite well. Sorry you guys didn’t.

Yeah, pretty much anywhere north of downtown did pretty well. DEN picked up over half an inch, about in line with what models were showing a few days out.

A huge plume of rain literally 2-3 miles to my west for the last hour, yet it refuses to come east.

Glorious here, 0.45" from an outflow-generated storm. Finally. Most in 6 weeks or more. Temp went from 96 to 66 in a couple of hours. You'll get it, eventually!

I got under one of those heavy popup cells finally. 0.4" in about 10 minutes.

It was 100 all across the area today. It's pretty rare.

I got above 97 for a bit this afternoon. Highest I've recorded on my PWS.

I just hope the monsoon hype verifies this week.

DEN hit 103. Two days ago Greeley hit 107.

For DEN, it was the hottest temp since 2018. It was the 15th time on record Denver has hit 103 or hotter.

At Greeley, it was the hottest temp since 2006, and only the sixth time in their history.

Wouldn't get your hopes up too much. Looks like pretty standard fare for this time of year, definitely nothing crazy.
