Colorado is experiencing a hot and dry start to August with high pressure causing temperatures in the low to mid-90s. A Heat Advisory is in effect along the I-25 corridor through Monday evening, with relief expected by Tuesday from a weak cold front.

Monsoon-fueled showers and thunderstorms are increasing across Colorado, ending a dry July with flash flood threats in western areas. High temperatures in the 90s and 100s persist, with varying precipitation chances across regions including Colorado Springs, Pueblo, and the mountains.

Temperatures near 100 degrees are expected this weekend and next week, with the National Weather Service predicting mid- to upper-90s highs and potential for localized 100-degree readings. Fire danger increases due to dry conditions, and Denver may open cooling centers if a heat advisory is issued.
