DENVER — A brief cool down for Sunday in Denver before the heat returns this week.
Sunday afternoon highs are expected to be in the low to mid-60s, with temperatures closer to normal across the Denver area.
A cold front moving through is helping temperatures drop today, bringing a noticeable change after Saturday’s record high of 86 degrees at Denver International Airport.
The cooler air will also bring a short break from critical fire weather conditions.

However, warmer weather returns for the work week as high pressure begins to rebuild over the region.
Afternoon highs will climb into the mid-70s with mostly dry conditions.

There is a slight chance of light precipitation along the Front Range and in the high country on Monday.
