Denver, Colo. – Thunderstorms could bring wet roads and slick commutes Sunday night into Monday across the Denver metro and I-25 corridor. Drivers should remain alert for brief downpours and gusty winds, especially during evening travel hours.
According to the National Weather Service in Boulder, a 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms remains in place through late Monday. Activity will focus on higher terrain but may drift toward the Front Range, including Denver, Boulder, and Fort Collins. No severe weather is expected, but unsettled skies may briefly disrupt outdoor plans.
By Tuesday, September 30, drier and cooler air arrives, clearing skies across the state. Sunshine dominates midweek as October begins, with daytime highs in the low 80s and crisp overnight lows in the 50s.
Conditions shift Wednesday with continued sun and pleasant fall air, offering some of the week’s most comfortable weather. Outdoor activities, including hikes along the foothills and commutes along I-70, should see smooth conditions free of storm delays.
Residents are urged to use caution on wet roads tonight and Monday, keep phones charged in case of isolated power outages, and avoid high-elevation trails when storms are nearby.
The storm risk fades quickly, and Colorado’s first October days will highlight sunny skies, mild afternoons, and cool nights. More updates will follow if storm chances increase later in the week.
