Updated rain reports from the deluge yesterday (on the front-range). 72hr rain totals

Jun 26, 2025, 8:45 AM

06/26/25 8:45am: Great to see more heavy rain across the front-range, especially from last night's deluge in spots. Parts of the Denver area from Erie to Lafayette to Broomfield to Aurora picked up a whopping 0.75" to 1.75" just yesterday. I measured 0.53" in the last 24hrs (and 0.59" in the last 3 days).

First image below shows 72hr rain totals from MRMS: it's really the tale of two halves of the state, with all the meaningful rain over eastern CO and the front-range (mostly east of the Cont. Divide) with 0.5" to 2.0" of rain in many areas there. And very little over western CO and much of the north-central mountains.

Here are some notable 24hr reports from CoCoRaHS:

Calhan 3.1 N: 2.05"Lafayette 0.5 ENE: 1.75"Erie 0.5 SE: 1.59"Longmont 8.2 ESE: 1.32"Broomfield 1.2 NE: 1.19"Greeley 4.6 WNW: 1.02"Fort Lupton 7.4 NW: 0.98"Denver 4.2 ENE: 0.97"Black Forest 3.9 NNE: 0.95"Colorado Springs 11.0 NE: 0.89"Thornton 3.4 NNW: 0.78"Fort Collins 3.3 SSW: 0.54"Westminster 1.1 SW (my house): 0.53"Evergreen 5.3 S: 0.39"

Looking ahead warm and dry weather across the state from today through Saturday. Afternoon thunderstorms return on Sunday and Monday (mountains and front-range).

Then much better storm chances for western CO and the north-central mountains from Tue-Sat next week as the next monsoon surge moves in.

We will be heading to NYC early tomorrow morning for our big East coast trip. I should have one more updated tonight and then hopefully Thomas will be taking over forecasts on the reports while I'm gone.

How much rain did you get?
