Windy, cool weather will not last long - and that is "no fooling!"
Scattered rain and snow showers will continue early tonight, but little to no accumulation is expected. High temperatures stayed in the mid to upper 40s Monday afternoon along the Front Range, with 30s in the mountains.
Colorado’s high country may see some slick conditions over the high mountain passes.
This cool weather system will quickly move out overnight and we will see some much warmer weather for the rest of the week. Highs will be in the 50s on Tuesday, 60s on Wednesday and 70s by Thursday!
This warm weather will continue on Friday, with more sunshine and 70s for the Rockies home opener.
It will get a little cooler on Saturday and there's a chance of afternoon showers. A cold and wet pattern will arrive on Sunday and continue Monday with rain and then snow expected for the mountains and the plains.
