Denver, CO — The first light over the Front Range catches on frost-coated grass, a calm and crisp start to another quiet Colorado morning. The Mile High City is locked in a rare stretch of late-October stability — sunshine, mild afternoons, and light winds — but that peace won’t last deep into November.
According to the National Weather Service in Boulder, no hazardous conditions are expected through early next week, with daytime highs hovering near seasonal averages in the mid-60s to upper 70s. Skies remain clear and humidity low, keeping fire danger moderate but manageable.
The pattern remains steady through the weekend, with Saturday and Sunday both sunny and mild. Highs climb into the low to mid-70s, while nights cool sharply into the upper 30s and low 40s. Perfect conditions for late fall cleanup, Halloween weekend events, or final mountain drives before winter settles in.
But early November looks different. Long-range models hint at a colder, wetter trend beginning November 8–15, potentially dropping highs by 15–20 degrees. The first measurable snow along the Front Range could arrive during that period — possibly impacting mountain passes like I-70 and U.S. 285 as early as mid-month.
For now, Denver enjoys tranquil skies and comfortable warmth — a quiet pause before the Rockies remind residents how quickly fall can give way to winter.
