Tuesday's thunderstorm chances are highest across the south, Denver's chance drops as compared to Monday.

Speaking of Monday, it brought quite an active day of thunderstorms. Boulder got wacked during lunch as we wrote about with some impressive imagery:

Boulder gets pounded with hail and flooding rain midday Monday
Flooding and accumulating hail hit Boulder, Colorado Monday, especially inconvenient for those trying to grab a bite for lunch. > This guy attempted to cycle through the flooded area… all while another car got stuck. Mind you, firefighters were on scene telling people to turn around. @KDVR [https://twitter.com/KDVR?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw…

Following the soggy day, fog formed overnight and still covers some of us this morning. Plus, a few showers are floating across NoCo.

As that fog clears, sunshine will destabilize the atmosphere and give energy for storm development around midday. Overall, today's higher chances shift south, as shown here.

This isn't to say a storm doesn't pop up, as we will have scattered storms. The risks again will be heavy rainfall leading to some street flooding as well as hail which may accumulate.

With the fewest storms expected tomorrow, before chances increase Thursday and Friday, temperatures around the city will warm-up. Middle 70s on tap for Wednesday - maybe I'll hit up the pool (backyard rain puddles ;-)).
