A Friday Front will help with the hot/hazy situation Colorado is locked in. Cooler temperatures will be setting in for at least one day! Along with easing the heat the front will help to clear some of the haze out.

Before the cold front arrives Friday there may be a tiny bit of heat relief for northeastern Colorado late in the day on Thursday. There is a very small chance for a few late day thunderstorms from the Front Range out over the northeastern plains. At this point there is a marginal to slight chance for some of those storms to reach severe levels from Sterling and Wray up into Nebraska. The biggest threat is for 60+ mph gusts and 1 inch diameter hail.

Hot temperatures will return for the weekend.
