Scattered rain and snow showers are moving across the Denver metro this evening with heavier snow fall in the mountains.
The mountains could see anywhere from 3-7 inches of snow, while the plains will mostly get rain mixed with a little snow. We'll see a bit more snow pile up on the grassy surfaces with an inch or two along the Palmer Divide and closer to the foothills.
Overnight, look for mostly cloudy skies as temperatures fall into the upper 20s. We'll get a brief break from the wet weather early Friday morning, but fog and cloudy skies will greet you when you wake up.
A cold front will move into the Front Range late Friday morning, ushering in the final round of rain and snow in Denver. It'll be chilly, cloudy and a little soggy for the Rockies home opener. Look for scattered rain showers in the afternoon, mixing to light snow Friday evening. So far, it looks like a trace to an inch or two of snow by Saturday morning in the metro area.
Temperatures will only climb into the low 40s Friday, so bundle up if you're heading out. Skies will quickly clear out on Saturday and we're in for some warmer and drier weather on Sunday!
Look for highs in the 50s across the plains Sunday as a ridge of high-pressure moves in. This warmer trend will continue into next week, with temperatures climbing and feeling a lot more like spring by mid-week.
Daytime highs will be in the mid 60s on Monday with low to mid 70s for the rest of the work week.
