DENVER — We're closing out the week with one more summer-like day before a fall-like forecast returns this weekend.
Expect mostly sunny skies and calm winds with temperatures climbing into the mid 80s for the Denver metro area, 10 or more degrees above normal.
Denver will come close to matching its October 3 record of 88 degrees, set 20 years ago.
Big changes arrive Saturday: cooler air, more wind and chances for showers and storms move in. There will be better chances for rain in the high country, though the metro could see some as well. A dusting of snow is likely in the mountains at higher elevations.
Highs will drop down to the 60s for Sunday through middle of next week — much more like fall!
