Denver, CO – Colorado residents will see a quick shift from foggy mornings to bright, warm afternoons this week as fall weather settles over the Front Range. Commuters along the I-70 corridor should plan for fog early Tuesday morning before clear skies take over by midmorning.
According to the National Weather Service in Boulder, temperatures will climb steadily through Thursday, with highs reaching the low 80s across much of the Denver metro area. Calm winds and sunshine make this an ideal stretch for outdoor projects, pumpkin patch visits, and early Halloween decorating.
By Friday, a weak system is expected to bring increasing clouds and a slight chance of showers—mainly across the foothills and mountain valleys. While no severe weather is forecast, drivers heading west toward I-70 mountain passes should remain alert for reduced visibility if light rain develops.
Thursday’s forecast calls for clear skies and highs near 83°F, the warmest day of the week. Friday cools slightly to the upper 70s with isolated showers. The weekend outlook trends cooler, with highs near 74°F Saturday and mid-70s Sunday under partly sunny skies.
Residents should take advantage of the mild stretch before cooler temperatures and possible frost return next week.
