The winds will pick up this weekend and that will lead to some elevated fire danger across the state, especially across the high country and Western Slope. A red flag warning goes into effect at 11 a.m. on Saturday for those areas and remains in effect until midnight Saturday. We'll see wind gusts up to 50 mph and relative humidity dropping down below 10 percent. A Fire Weather Watch will be in effect for much of the day on Sunday.
It'll be a warm one again on Sunday in the Denver metro as highs climb into the mid to upper 90s again! Look for plenty of sunshine and gusty winds throughout the day.
Temperatures will hover right around 90 degrees as we head into next week, with more sunshine and mainly dry conditions. It'll be a warm, dry end to June and a sunny start to July as the 90-degree heat isn't going anywhere anytime soon!
