Meteorologist Joe Ruch is tracking the return of the monsoon weather pattern across Colorado.
This shift is expected to bring increased moisture and precipitation to the region, along with a noticeable drop in temperatures in Denver.

Impact & Risks

The return of the monsoon could lead to localized flooding in areas prone to heavy rainfall, especially in urban zones with poor drainage. Thunderstorms associated with the monsoon may also bring lightning, strong winds, and potential hail, posing risks to outdoor activities and travel. Cooler temperatures in Denver may provide relief from recent heat but could also lead to sudden weather changes that catch residents off guard.
