There is now a 60 percent chance that a tropical depression forms near the United States this Independence Day weekend, but those along the Gulf Coast can breathe easier for now. The National Hurricane Center has shifted where forecasters think the disturbance will form from the Gulf to the southwestern Atlantic, off the Southeast coast.

Metro Denver should see typical conditions for early July with temperatures in the low to mid-90s throughout the weekend, a slight breeze and a small chance of afternoon showers.
