Slightly cooler temperatures for the Denver metro area Sunday ahead of a cold front
Relief from the heat is on the way. A cold front arrives Sunday night into Monday, bringing temperatures down into the upper 70s and low 80s to start the work week. The drop in temperature may be the best way to start the work week! CBS Before the cold front arrives, however, temperatures will climb into the low 90s Sunday. There is a marginal chance for severe storms in the far southeast corner of the state. The rest of the state remains dry, and fire danger is high across the state, with a Red Flag Warning in effect in the high country and on the western slope until 10 p.m. Sunday. CBS We will also see the chance for afternoon rain and thunderstorms, which will be a welcome sight. The cooler weather sticks around for the week with a daily chance of showers and thunderstorms until Thursday, when we begin to warm back up and dry out. Thankfully, there are no triple-digit temperatures in the near future! CBS

'Insanely loud and bright' Marco lightning strike scatters beachgoers near JW Marriott
First responders swarmed the Marco Island beach after a lightning bolt struck near the JW Marriott Island Beach Resort the afternoon of June 21. Witnesses saw police, emergency medical techs and firefighters converging shortly after people rushed from the water as a flash storm broke over the beach. Despite an early report that three people were hit, "It has since been clarified that the individuals were not directly struck," wrote Marco Island Police Department Captain David Ennis in an email. "Rather, the hut they were sheltering under was struck, which resulted in minor injuries to them." After the storm zapped their tiki, the three, all in their late 20s, were taken by ambulance to get checked out. Their injuries were minor. "Indirect effects, such as ground current, occur when lightning strikes an object and the current travels through the ground, affecting nearby individuals," Ennis wrote. It's a teachable moment, he says, and a reminder that lightning is nothing to be trifled with. "Our intense summer storms can develop rapidly, and lightning is both dangerous and unpredictable," Ennis wrote. "During a storm, it is crucial to seek shelter indoors immediately and avoid standing under trees or open structures. Stay clear of electrical appliances, plumbing, and water." In 2021, a Marco Island lightning strike claimed the life of 18-year-old William "Walker" Bethune, who was hit on Tigertail Beach. Marco Islander Matthew Pschigoda was in the middle of it all for this weekend's storm. Pschigoda, who works beachside at Regency Watersports near the resort, said it hit around 3 p.m. 'It built up really fast,' he said. When the lightning alert sirens went off, the scrambling began. 'We were all closing the beach,' Pschigoda said – trying to get Jet Skis in, chairs stowed, umbrellas collapsed. With just a few chores remaining, the sky opened. 'It just starts raining sideways and it's pouring,' he said. 'Next thing you know, there's lightning all around us.' 'It was so bright … it was so close, it was so loud. It sounded like somebody was shooting a gun.' Then, a blinding bolt struck close by Pschigoda and his colleagues. 'We felt shock waves from this lightning strike, it was so close.' Any nearer, he said, and 'it would have probably gotten us.' The city has installed lightning warning signals throughout the island and along the beach to alert people to potential danger, and the Marriott has a comprehensive weather safety protocol in place, according to the resort's Marketing Director Tracy Tirrell. It includes a lightning detection system similar to those used at local parks and golf courses that sounds a long alert along with a strobe light when lightning is detected within a 10-mile radius. "At that time, we immediately close our pools, cease beach operations, and suspend service in all outdoor areas," Tirrell wrote. "Once the threat has passed, an 'all clear' is issued via three short audible bursts and the strobe ceases. At that point, we resume normal operations, provided it is within the designated hours for beach and pool access." The resort's website also has weather safety information available 24/7. Does the strike change the way Pschigoda feels about lightning? '100%," he said. "I mean, you know how it is – you're kind of like, 'I'll be all right,'' but after this, he says he'll think twice about electrical storms. 'Even my boss's son who's been there his entire life, he puts this in the top two most gnarly moments in his life.'

Alligator on Florida golf course takes victory lap with stolen club
Footage has surfaced showing an alligator traversing a Florida pond while displaying a golf club like a trophy. Presumably, the golfer is OK. The footage, shared by WINK News meteorologist Matt Devitt, was captured at an Orlando golf course recently by a WINK viewer named Doug. 'Only in Florida,' Devitt joked via Instagram. 'I'd let him play through.' It's unclear if the alligator stole the club from a bag, if the club had been left near the pond, or if the golfer had tossed the club into the water during a tantrum. It's also unclear if the voice in the audio belongs to the golfer who lost the club. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Matt Devitt (@mattdevittweather) While alligator sightings on Florida golf courses are fairly routine, this was extraordinary. It looks as though the gator is using the club as a snorkel or, as one follower remarked, a periscope. The top Instagram comment, predictably, reads: 'What happened to the golfer?'
