DENVER, Colo. – A pale sunrise spreads across the Front Range this morning, painting the eastern sky in shades of coral and gold. The foothills glow under calm conditions, though dry air and steady winds could make for a slightly dusty start on the plains. After a cool dawn near 37°F, temperatures are climbing quickly toward another unseasonably warm early-November day.
The National Weather Service in Boulder continues to note elevated fire weather conditions today for parts of northeast Colorado. Gusts up to 30 mph are possible on the plains with humidity values dropping below 20%. It’s a reminder that even as fall deepens, the Front Range remains vulnerable to fast-spreading grass fires in these dry stretches. Residents should avoid burning and secure loose outdoor items before winds increase late this morning.
By Tuesday, calmer air settles in as high pressure strengthens, bringing bright sunshine and temperatures near 73°F. The pattern holds through Wednesday, with sunny skies, light breezes, and highs around 70°F — ideal for early holiday travel or outdoor prep before cooler air slides in later this week.
Thursday and Friday will trend slightly cooler, with highs falling into the upper 60s and lows dipping into the upper 30s. Dry conditions persist, keeping roads clear for commutes and mountain travel. However, early models hint at the next potential cold front by the end of the weekend, possibly delivering Denver’s first measurable chill of November just as the region edges closer to Veterans Day.
