Denver, Colorado – A blustery start to the week will give way to calmer skies and crisp fall sunshine across Colorado by Tuesday. Early risers across the Front Range can expect cooler air sweeping in behind departing showers, with temperatures dipping into the 40s before rebounding into the 60s by afternoon.
According to the National Weather Service in Boulder, isolated rain showers will linger through early Monday near the foothills and along I-70, tapering off as drier air moves in. Winds remain the main concern today, with gusts up to 30 mph creating brief travel challenges on exposed roadways, especially for high-profile vehicles crossing the eastern plains. Drivers should use caution and secure outdoor decorations or Halloween displays before winds peak.
By Tuesday, high pressure will settle in, bringing mostly sunny skies and mild fall air—ideal for outdoor activities, leaf peeping, or setting up backyard pumpkin patches. Afternoon highs will reach the mid-60s, with overnight lows staying comfortably in the 40s.
Midweek looks bright and stable. “We’ll see classic October weather—cool mornings, sunny afternoons, and dry air through at least Thursday,” the NWS added. Warmer conditions will return by Wednesday, pushing highs near 80°F in metro Denver before another gentle cooldown late week.
Residents planning fall festivals or park outings can expect excellent visibility and calm winds midweek—perfect for enjoying peak foliage across the foothills.
