Colorado saw an unseasonably warm end to the month. A high of 90 degrees at Denver International Airport, ties the record high, set back in 1980. Typically on September 30th, Denver's average high is 73 degrees.

Temperatures were also warm in the mountains, well into the mid and upper 70s over our central and northern high country towns.

Winds will continue to be strong through this evening. With those higher winds we have a red flag warning for high fire danger across western Colorado.

A few scattered showers are also possible for the foothills and metro Denver. At this point, though, it's only a 10% chance. Chances for precipitation are highest over parts of the high country at around 30%.

For Sunday, highs will still be in the 80s with dry conditions for the plains.

While our highs stay in the mid-80s on Sunday, a significant cooldown is on the way. Highs could dip into the low 60s on Tuesday with a chance of rain, and cool weather sticks around on Wednesday with temps only reaching the mid-60s.

By late next week, highs are likely to rebound to the upper 60s and low 70s, which is right in line for the first week of October in Denver.
