The summer heat is holding on tight to Colorado, as we wind down the season in the next couple of days. Soak it in because it'll look and feel a bit more like fall this weekend!
We're in for plenty of sunshine and highs in the mid- to upper-80s across the Denver metro area again on Friday. Winds will pick up a bit on Friday leading to another day of high fire danger.
Our next cold front is quite a bit stronger and will approach the state, starting Friday night.
The cooler air will move into the Front Range Saturday morning with scattered showers and storms picking up by the late afternoon into the evening. The heaviest rain will fall Saturday evening and overnight into Sunday morning. Some areas around the city could see between a half of an inch to an inch of water!
We'll see high temperatures in the low-70s on Saturday and upper-50s on Sunday! It will feel and look like fall as we welcome in the new season on Sunday. Autumn will officially begin on Sunday at 6:43 a.m.
Some snow will fall on the peaks above 9,000 feet on Saturday. Some areas could see between 3 to 6 inches of fresh snow by midday Sunday. The showers will slowly move out of the state Sunday afternoon and evening.
Another weak system cruises into Colorado Monday night into Tuesday, bringing another brief cool off and quick round of rain. Mid 70s are back by the middle of next week.
