DENVER — It has been another warm and dry day, with high temperatures near 80 degrees and 60s to low 70s in the mountains. Wednesday will still be mild through the morning, but a chilly change will arrive late Wednesday!
A new storm system will move into the state during the afternoon Wednesday. Scattered showers first develop in the mountains and then roll east over the plains. There will be a slight chance of storms across the Denver metro area on Wednesday afternoon with highs in the low 70s.
Thursday will be quite a bit colder with highs only in the 50s. There will be snow in the mountains and a chilly rain for the plains. We are hoisting a Denver7 Weather Action Day for Thursday due to the chilly, wet weather. A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for the Northern Mountains from 6 PM Wednesday until 9 AM Friday for up to 10 inches of snow.
There's a slight chance that some of this rain will switch over to snow on the plains late Thursday and early Friday. Friday will be windy and chilly with highs only around 50-55 degrees in Denver and just in the 30s to low 40s in the mountains.
Skies will then clear for the weekend with a nice warm up on Saturday and Sunday.
