DENVER, Colo. — It was a cool Tuesday across the Denver metro as a temperature inversion trapped the cold air at the surface. With light winds, we couldn't get the cold air to budge so highs flatlined in the 30s!
It'll be partly cloudy overnight with temperatures dropping into the 20s and low 30s around the city.
By Wednesday morning, a storm system will start to push into the High Country, bringing light snow showers and blustery winds. Those strong westerly winds will pick up across much of the region, with gusts reaching up to 60 mph in the mountains and 40 mph on the plains.
With the fierce, downsloping winds, temperatures will climb into the mid to upper 60s around the metro area Wednesday afternoon! We'll see a bit more sunshine too.
Another dry cold front swings into the region Thursday morning, dropping daytime highs back into the low to mid 50s during the afternoon. Temperatures will jump back to the low 60s Friday under mostly sunny skies.
Our next storm will usher in some much cooler weather for the weekend. We'll see highs in the 30s and 40s, with a chance of light snow Saturday night into Sunday morning. So far, it doesn't look like we'll get much accumulation in the city. The chilly temperatures stick around into early next week!
