Fire Risk to Start the Week
GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KKCO) - Today had some scattered showers and thunderstorms in the area. That will clear out this evening and then this coming week will be dry and hot. Tomorrow will see temperatures in the low to mid 90s across the area. This looks like our coolest day of this coming week since the temperatures will increase throughout the week. Temperatures could hit 100 degrees in Grand Junction for a few days Thursday through Saturday. That is still about a week away and the timing of when we could see 100 degrees could change. But it does look like we could hit 100 degrees sometime late this coming week. The dewpoint temperatures will be low this week with dewpoints during the afternoon in the teens and 20s most days with a couple of 30s.
