DENVER— It was a beautiful, sunny start to the work week! Get ready for a lot of melting this week.
Look for a few clouds in Denver overnight with lows dipping into the upper 20s and lower 30s. A Dense Fog Advisory is in effect until 9am Tuesday for the far Eastern Plains. Low visibility will create tough traveling conditions along I-76 and I-70 early Tuesday morning.
Meanwhile, a storm system will move into Colorado's High Country midday Tuesday. The mountains will see steady snowfall throughout the day with accumulating snow above 9,000 feet. We'll see about 3 to 6 inches of new snowfall along with slick, icy mountain passes.
It'll be a dry, mild start to the day in Denver with increasing afternoon clouds. Daytime highs will be in the mid 50s Tuesday afternoon. As a cold front zips across the state, it'll kick up the winds as it pushes through the Denver metro area around 5pm. The Urban Corridor could see a few light rain showers during the evening drive.
This system clears out Wednesday but temperatures will cool behind the front, with highs in the upper-40s to low-50s.
It will warm up again toward the end of the week, with highs in the upper-50s to lower-60s from Thursday through Saturday with mostly sunny skies.
It turns a little cooler and cloudier Sunday with a chance of a wintry mix in Denver Monday.
