A ridge of high pressure will build in across Colorado, bringing drier and warmer conditions to much of the state. Look for low 70s Saturday in Denver with mid to upper 70s Sunday.
The mild temperatures stick around next Monday but scattered showers and storms will pop up in the afternoon. A sharp cold front will race through the state, ushering in chilly temperatures and a better round of rain Tuesday. Daytime highs will stay in the upper 40s to low 50s Tuesday, as it looks to be the soggiest day of the week.
Some areas around the metro could see a rain/snow mix late Tuesday night into Wednesday morning as temperatures drop near the freezing mark. Light rain lingers into Wednesday with gradual clearing late Wednesday night.
Warmer and drier conditions return Thursday as highs bounce back to the low 70s. So far, it looks like the sunny skies and warmer temperatures will stick around through Mother's Day weekend. Don't forget the flowers!
