Drought conditions improve in Northern Colorado, but Western Slope still struggling
This week's U.S. Drought Monitor brings some welcome news for parts of Colorado. After a round of much-needed moisture last week, drought conditions have improved across northern Colorado — particularly in Larimer and Weld counties. That rainfall helped eliminate drought status along portions of the Front Range, leaving Denver, Douglas, and Arapahoe counties drought free. CBS Unfortunately, the rest of the state didn't fare as well. Portions of the Western Slope, including Mesa, Delta, and Montrose counties, are still under extreme drought conditions. CBS With the rainfall we've already seen this month — nearly an inch in the first four days of June — we've picked up close to half the precipitation we typically see for the entire month. CBS Looking ahead, the Climate Prediction Center's long-range outlook is signaling a potential shift to a drier weather pattern for northeastern Colorado, the plains and the Front Range during the core summer months — June, July, and August.

Beach and Boating forecast: June 5, 2025
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — As the first week of June officially comes to a close, temperatures remain on the cooler side with wildfire smoke limiting sunshine this weekend. Temperatures remain near average for this time of year with highs in the low to mid-70s this weekend. Unlike last weekend, the winds will be quite calm. Both Friday and Saturday will have a north/northeast wind at 5 to 10 miles per hour. Sunday will be a touch breezy with a south wind at 10 to 15 miles per hour. Some yellow flags may fly then with wave heights at 1 to 3 feet. Due to the limited sunshine and near average temperatures, water temperatures have only warmed a few degrees this week. Most beaches are reporting temperatures in the upper 40s to low 50s. The average temperature in Lake Michigan for early June typically sits near 50 degrees. While these water temperatures remain near average for this time of the year, any water temperature below 60 degrees can pose a safety threat. If more than a few minutes are spent in the water, cold water shock and hypothermia can set in. The good news? Water temperatures typically warm around 10 degrees throughout the month of June! The peak temperature sits in the low 70s for early to mid August. Lake Michigan Summer Beach Guide Sunday will start off quite pleasant at the lakeshore with sunshine and highs reaching near 70 degrees. By the evening, a cold front is set to sweep through bringing the chance for some showers and thunderstorms. At this time, no severe weather is expected. Lingering showers will continue Monday and Tuesday. Air quality took a dip Thursday morning, with most of West Michigan reporting in the uncomfortable to unhealthy range. Those who are sensitive should limit time outdoors. An air quality alerts remains in effect for Newaygo, Oceana, and Mecosta counties throughout Thursday. While cloud cover will limit the sunset this evening, the wildfire smoke can make the sunset look a bit more vibrant. As the light interacts with the smoke in the lower levels of the atmosphere, the sun tends to look bright red.

Severe storms expected Thursday
(SOUTHERN COLORADO) — Severe thunderstorms are often expected over eastern Colorado in early June. The image below from the Colorado Climate Center shows a smoothed version of severe weather days over a two-week running mean (thick black lines). Significant severe weather reports are also represented over a running two-week mean (thinner blue line). For tornadoes, the frequency ramps up through May and reaches a peak in early June, with a slow decline through the summer and into the fall. The graph for severe hail looks similar, but shifted a little later: the peak is in mid-June. Wind reports from severe thunderstorms are more frequent later in the summer, with a peak in early to mid-July. An average of all three types of severe weather reports puts the climatological peak of severe weather on June 10, so no big surprise we've got some in the forecast for the end of the week. For Thursday, storms will strengthen as they move or develop over the eastern plains. Severe storms are certainly possible along the Front Range, but are a little more likely from Trinidad to Cheyenne Wells and most likely in the southeast corner of the state. It is likely that a severe thunderstorm and/or tornado watch will be issued for parts of eastern Colorado later on today. A WATCH means that ingredients are present for the possible formation of severe thunderstorms, and you should pay attention. It's similar to Mom or Dad putting the ingredients for tacos out on the kitchen counter – get ready. A WARNING is like the tray of assembled tacos arriving at the table – it's time to take action! Know the difference and be ready later today. Download the FOX21 StormTeam app for Apple or Android to get a digital door knock from us in the weather center when storms are heading your way.
