Who is ready for October to feel like October? After highs in the mid 70s for Denver on Thursday- we will be in the 50s for Friday and Saturday here for the Front Range.
A winter-like storm will move into Colorado Friday and into the weekend. So far, it appears the mountains will see a decent amount of snow, with rainfall for the Denver metro area. A light rain/snow mix is possible along the Palmer Divide early Saturday morning.
A Winter Storm Warning is in effect for the San Juans from Friday afternoon until Sunday morning for 1 to 2 feet of snow above 8500 feet in elevation. The Front Range mountains will see up to 6 inches of snow in the central mountains near Interstate 70.
Temperatures will also finally start to drop, with 50s on Friday and highs in the upper-40s to low-50s on Saturday.
It's been awhile since Denver's seen rain. Friday will be the first chance of showers since Sept. 22. The Front Range is parched, and we desperately need the water!
This storm moves out of the metro area on Sunday. We'll see partly cloudy skies and highs in the mid-60s Sunday afternoon. Warmer and drier weather return early next week.
