Enjoy some below average temperatures through Wednesday, especially east of the mountains. But watch out for some localized strong thunderstorms late today.

Cooler weather is already here, but another cold front Monday night into Tuesday morning will keep temperatures below average through Wednesday. Thunderstorms today may become severe, but the greatest risk of that is east of I-25. There may be some low clouds and localized drizzle or fog with the cold front tonight and possibly again early Wednesday morning. Heavy rainfall should be limited to local areas that experience thunderstorms this afternoon and evening, and again late Tuesday.

Wednesday afternoon through Friday should be warmer and drier ahead of another cool front this weekend.
