DENVER — Tonight, conditions stay calm and mild with partly cloudy skies and no precipitation. Temperatures remain well above normal for early February, giving the evening and overnight hours a more springlike feel than a typical winter setup.

Lows by Monday AM

]Monday continues the warm and dry pattern. Afternoon highs will reach the mid to upper 60s, and a few locations could approach 70 degrees if cloud cover stays limited. Winds will increase during the afternoon, particularly across the plains near the Wyoming–Nebraska border, and when combined with the warm, dry air, this will create elevated to locally critical fire weather conditions.

Elevated fire danger

A weak cold front moves through late Monday into Tuesday, bringing slightly cooler air but still mild temperatures for the plains. Most areas remain dry, though the northern mountains could see some light snow from Monday night through Tuesday night. Overall impacts look minimal.Midweek brings a more active pattern, especially for the mountains.

Highs the next few days

Wednesday and Thursday currently offer the best chance for light to moderate mountain snow as a slow-moving system approaches. Lower elevations remain mostly dry, though a few rain or snow showers are possible along the I-25 corridor late Thursday into Friday.

One more warm day, then cooler air arrives

Toward the end of the week, there may be another modest opportunity for precipitation, but confidence remains low and much of the activity may stay south of the region. Temperatures are expected to remain on the mild side, and once this system moves through, warmer and drier conditions are likely to return.
