Denver, Colorado – Residents in Denver and across Colorado’s Urban Corridor should prepare for scattered showers and thunderstorms this afternoon and into the evening. Some of these storms could produce heavy, localized rain, impacting travel and outdoor plans.
According to the National Weather Service Denver/Boulder office, showers are already moving across northern Colorado this morning. The main round of showers and thunderstorms is expected to develop this afternoon. This pattern of unsettled weather is set to affect the I-25 corridor, including major metro areas like Denver and Fort Collins, as well as the surrounding plains and foothills.
While the storms are expected to be scattered, their potential for heavy downpours could lead to localized street flooding and reduced visibility for drivers. Commuters traveling on major roadways, including I-25 and I-70, should be prepared for changing conditions and a slower trip home.
The risk of storms and heavy rain will persist through the evening before conditions begin to clear. Residents are advised to stay informed on local alerts and take shelter indoors if thunder is heard.
