DENVER — Mid-September is usually the best time of the year for beautiful weather in Colorado- clear and comfortable nights, sunny mornings and just a few afternoon thunderstorms.
We can look forward to more of that for the next several days with warm and mainly dry weather for the last days of summer. Fall officially starts early Saturday morning at 12:50 a.m.
A few isolated gusty storms may develop and roll off the foothills each afternoon, but they will be weak and short-lived. Skies will clear out overnight with more sunshine in store each day. Some afternoon clouds will pop up, but the tail end of the summer season looks pretty peaceful!
Temperatures cool slightly over the weekend with highs back in the upper 70s Saturday and around 80 degrees on Sunday. In the mountains, expect morning lows in the middle 30s to low 40s and daytime highs in the mid 60s to low 70s.
The aspen trees are starting to change colors across northern Colorado, so the next few weeks will provide some very lovely scenes. Get out there and enjoy!
