Thursday’s forecast has rain in it, but most of metro Denver has been skunked over the last two days, with only one notable measurement recorded of 0.16 inches of rain at a remote weather station in Expo Park in Aurora.

Denver residents can expect a 50% chance of showers and thunderstorms, mainly after 2 p.m., according to the National Weather Service in Boulder.

Clouds will increase throughout the day, with a high near 86. South southwest winds between 5 to 10 mph become north northeast in the afternoon. Winds could gust as high as 21 mph.

Tonight there is a chance of showers and thunderstorms before 9 p.m., then a slight chance of showers between 9 p.m. and midnight. It’ll be mostly cloudy, then gradually becoming mostly clear, with a low around 60. South winds between 6 to 10 mph, with gusts as high as 21 mph are possible. Chance of precipitation is 30%.

Both Friday and Saturday see chances of afternoon showers diminish each day, but can’t be ruled out, and high temperatures will push back into the 90s each day too.

A return to fully sunny and dry conditions Sunday and Monday across metro Denver is forecast as summer heat builds back in as high pressure takes over across Colorado.
