Denver, Colorado – A mild Sunday will give way to gradual cooling early this week, with a small chance for light snow across parts of Colorado by Tuesday night.
According to the National Weather Service in Denver and Boulder, Sunday will be unseasonably mild across the Urban Corridor and Plains, with afternoon highs ranging from 59 to 65 degrees. Mountain areas will also see relatively mild conditions, with highs in the low to mid-40s. Dry weather is expected statewide, making for favorable travel conditions along Interstate 25, Interstate 70, and U.S. 36.
Changes begin Monday as weak and mostly dry cold fronts push into the region. High temperatures along the Front Range are forecast to cool into the low to mid-50s, while overnight lows dip into the 20s and 30s. Mountain highs will fall into the upper 30s, with lows dropping into the teens.
By Tuesday, temperatures continue trending cooler, with highs in the upper 40s to low 50s along the I-25 corridor and mid-30s to low 40s in the mountains. The National Weather Service notes a 15–30% chance of snow showers late Tuesday into Tuesday night, mainly affecting higher elevations and isolated areas along the Front Range.
Any snow that does develop is expected to be very light, with minimal accumulation and limited travel impacts. No significant winter weather hazards are anticipated at this time.
While conditions remain quiet overall, commuters and travelers should be aware of temperature swings and the potential for brief slick spots in mountain areas late Tuesday, particularly along I-70 west of Denver.
This outlook is especially relevant for students, commuters, and workers planning early-week travel across the Front Range and nearby mountain corridors.
Residents are encouraged to monitor updated forecasts as the week progresses, especially if midweek snow chances increase.
