and last updated

Denver hit a high of 78 degrees on Sunday, breaking the previous record of 77 set in 2009. Today has been warm and dry again with highs in the low to mid-70s across the metro-area and plains. Colorado's mountain towns have had readings mainly in the 50s to low 60s.

It will be just as warm across the Denver metro area on Tuesday, but the winds will also pick up ahead of our next cold front. Fire danger will be higher especially across Southern Colorado.

Our next chance for moisture arrives mid-week with a minor storm system. Temperatures will also dip into the 40s and low 50s at that point across the plains.

Mountain showers can be expected late Tuesday, with a few rain showers possible across the metro area on Wednesday. This rain could briefly switch over to snow late Wednesday and early Thursday.

Skies will clear Thursday. It'll be chilly with highs in the 40s, ahead of more seasonal weather expected through next weekend.
