Colorado Springs, CO – A warm, sunny Sunday will bring a taste of spring to Colorado before a midweek shift brings snow and colder temperatures. Highs will climb into the 60s and 70s across much of the state, but a system midweek could impact travel, especially along I-70.
According to the National Weather Service, Sunday’s high in Denver will reach around 64°F under mostly sunny skies. The warming trend will continue into Monday, with temperatures peaking near 70°F. However, by Wednesday night, a system moving into the region will bring colder air and the potential for snow, particularly in the mountains and foothills.
Forecasters predict snowfall accumulating 2-5 inches in the higher elevations, while lower elevations, including the Denver metro, could see a mix of rain and snow. Breezy conditions and lower humidity levels are expected by midweek, increasing fire danger in some areas. Drivers along I-70 should prepare for slick conditions in mountain passes.
