DENVER — It was another 90+ degree day in Denver, making it the city's 57th day at 90-degrees or above this summer season. If you're ready for a cool off, it's on the way.

An incoming storm will start to usher in more widespread showers to the northwestern mountains late Tuesday night into Wednesday. A cold front will race across the state overnight, helping to cool off daytime highs by about 10 degrees. Look for low- to mid-80s Wednesday around the Denver metro area under partly cloudy skies.

Scattered showers and storms will pop up around the Front Range on Wednesday afternoon and evening. Some storms could turn severe around the high country, Denver metro and eastern plains. Large hail and damaging wind gusts will be the biggest threats, so keep the cars in the garage if you can!

As another surge of cooler air settles in Thursday, so temperatures will be a bit cooler in Denver in the low- to mid-70s. It'll feel like a brief taste of fall around the city! Look for another round of afternoon and evening showers Thursday.

On Friday, high-pressure builds up over the Four Corners, helping to dry out the state yet again. It'll bring another warm up just in time for the weekend. Temperatures will skyrocket into the low-90s Saturday and Sunday and the summer-like heat will continue into early next week.

A hot and dry Tuesday with high temperatures in the 90s
