Cold front brings relief from record heat and renews severe storm threat in Colorado
A cold front will move through overnight Sunday into early Monday, bringing much-needed relief from the heat across Denver and much of Colorado.
This front will lead to two big changes for the week ahead: cooler temperatures and the return of storm chances.
Highs will be stuck in the 70s and 80s from Monday through Thursday—a refreshing change after the recent stretch of record heat.
Scattered thunderstorms will also return to the forecast. Strong to severe storms will be possible on both Monday and Tuesday.
Monday will bring garden variety showers for most of the area, with a slight chance for one or two storms to produce hail and gusty winds near Denver.
CBS
Tuesday will bring a greater threat of severe weather. Damaging winds and large hail will be the main concern along the I-25 corridor and across the Eastern Plains.
CBS
Storms are expected to develop between 1 and 2 p.m., gaining strength as they move east through the evening hours.

Neighbors work together in Havertown, Pennsylvania, as storm cleanup and power outages continue
Neighbors work together in Delco as storm cleanup and power outages continue Neighbors work together in Delco as storm cleanup and power outages continue Neighbors work together in Delco as storm cleanup and power outages continue More than 72 hours after Thursday's powerful storms, thousands across the Philadelphia area are still without power. But in Havertown, a community is finding light by working together. Sometimes the best way to lend a hand is by lending some power – and that's exactly what Andrew Izzi did. "I just ran an extension cord to Chris' house. … He's helped me out a bunch in the past," Izzi said. Izzi's extension cord runs from his front window across Washington Avenue to the home of his neighbor, Chris Romanelli. "It was just a generosity thing. He didn't have to, he offered, and it was awesome," Romanelli said. "That's what I love about Havertown, it's a great community." Thursday's storms split the block. Romanelli's side is still without power — a downed line hangs behind the homes. But just across the street, Lisa Bielli was lucky. She's on the same side of the street as Izzi. And as she cleared up branches in her yard, she checked on neighbors and offered them support. READ MORE: Tips on how to file an insurance claim for storm damage Help was all around. Farther down Washington Avenue, another cord connected two homes, bridging the power divide. Romanelli is still mostly in the dark, but thanks to his neighbors, he's managing to keep food cold — and his spirits up. "I do have a fridge, that's the good thing," Romanelli said. "Thanks to my neighbor, I'm able to run that,"

Phillies fans find ways to stay cool amid extreme heat in Philadelphia region
Philadelphians find different ways to beat the heat on Sunday Philadelphians find different ways to beat the heat on Sunday Philadelphians find different ways to beat the heat on Sunday Diehard Phillies fans didn't let the heat deter them from getting to Citizens Bank Park early to grab the perfect tailgate spot ahead of Sunday night's division match-up against the Mets. "Under the overhang, you got to get K Lot," Bailey Delp, from Pottstown, said. "We usually stay in M Lot, K Lot has the overhangs, stay out of the sun." Many like Meredith Henry know exactly what to do to stay cool as the temperatures rise. She packed her backpack with several cool water bottles. Meanwhile, some like Jamie Magnotta were left to simply sweat it out as her son enjoyed the Phillies Carnival ahead of first pitch. "It's hot, yet they don't seem to be affected by it, nope. He's having a blast jumping around, they're going to do flips," Magnotta said. As the sun began to set, many came to Spruce Street Harbor Park hoping to cool off along the water. Water ice, ice cream and a cozy seat along the Delaware waterfront made for a nice escape, said 9-year-old Elayna, who was relaxing with her family along the river. "We came here because it was cool here," she said. Whatever the strategy, those in Philly say buckle up with the brunt of the hot weather still to come.
