DENVER — After a roller coaster weekend of weather, we’re starting our Monday morning with cold temperatures. It won’t last long, though, as a new system moves in to bring warm air.

Monday will bring a modest warmup, with highs in the upper 40s and lows in the low 50s.

A few light snow showers are possible overnight heading into Tuesday across the mountains and near the foothills.

A High Wind Warning is in effect from 9 p.m. tonight through 6 p.m. Tuesday for the Bordeaux area along Interstate 25 between Chugwater and Wheatland.

Big changes are on the way with a major warm up expected Tuesday as a ridge of high pressure builds across the western United States.

Temperatures across eastern Colorado will reach 70 degrees by Tuesday, with even warmer weather possible later in the week.
