DENVER — The super soggy system that dropped 3 to 6 inches of rain over Denver and the Front Range has finally swirled off to the east of Colorado.

Rain totals in the last 48 hours range anywhere from 3 to 6 inches across the Denver metro area and northeastern plains. To the west, the mountains received over a foot of snow near the Continental Divide.

All flood warnings for Denver metro and communities north and east through Colorado's northeast plains have been dropped as the high water recedes.

Drivers and pedestrians are urged to pay particular attention to excessive runoff as a result of flooding in creeks, streams and other low-lying, flood-prone areas.

The weather will be cool and unsettled for the next couple of days in the wake of the big storm. Scattered showers will be possible on Saturday and likely on Mother's Day. Highs will be in the low 60s on Saturday, with mid-to-upper 50s on Sunday.

Warmer weather arrives Monday with a few afternoon showers and thunderstorms. Tuesday will be perhaps the driest day of the week with highs in the low to mid-70s. Wednesday through next Friday will be pretty typical for the middle of May with scattered afternoon thunderstorms and highs of 70-75 degrees.
