Tuesday in Thornton to warm slightly, next storm arrives tonight

The daytime hours today do offer some improvements over yesterday as temperatures climb a bit (but remain below normal). Tonight, the next storm system arrives although it doesn’t look to be too dramatic.

Mostly sunny skies start us off and will be with us throughout the morning and early afternoon. Highs will reach around the 50 degree mark. Winds will be breezy from mid-morning on and clouds will increase by mid to late afternoon signifying the storm system’s arrival.

This evening and overnight, we will see some chances for precipitation but they will be minimal. Maybe a dusting before sunrise tomorrow. Lows will be in the mid-20s. Chances for snow do increase tomorrow morning when we could see a half inch or so.
