Colorado will finally get a break from the rainy and severe storms of the last several days. After going thru the wettest June so far we have a drying and warming trend setting up.

Water vapor imagery on the GOES-16 satellite shows a plume of dry air shooting into the southern and central Rockies. Colorado is a target for the drier and warmer pattern starting this weekend and running into the middle of next week.
