Denver weather: Here comes the heat Monday around Denver

Sinkhole formed in Littleton, copious hail in Boulder

Denver could finally crack the 90 degree mark for a high Monday as the metro area continues to dry out after a very wet first half of June.

Denver residents can expect sunny skies with a high near 90 Monday, according to the National Weather Service in Boulder. A southeast wind will blow between 9 to 14 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph.

The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment has issued an Ozone Action Day alert until 4 p.m., today for Douglas, Jefferson, Denver, western Arapahoe, western Adams, Broomfield, Boulder, Larimer, and Weld counties.

Requests to limit driving of non-ZEV vehicles (i.e., gas or diesel) are now in effect until at least 4 p.m. Monday. Although ozone is expected to remain in the Good to Moderate range on Sunday, higher ozone concentrations in the Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups category are expected Monday afternoon and evening, the agency said.
