A Snowy Weekend for the Mountains; Dry In Denver

By Ed Greene

DENVER (CBS4) - Scattered snow showers or freezing drizzle just scattered around the metro area early this morning - heavier snow was found to the east. Skies even cleared during the afternoon hours over Denver as the high rose to 45 at the airport and 47 degrees downtown. Winter Storm Warnings and Winter Weather Advisories continue for most mountain locations until early Sunday morning.

For Denver, expect a fairly seasonal weekend: partly cloudy skies on Saturday with a high in the low 40s; mostly sunny for Sunday with a high in the mid 40s.

Monday will see increasing clouds as the next system moves into the state and that means more heavy snows for the mountains but only a chance for scattered snow showers for the Denver metro area. Milder on Monday with a high near 50 degrees. Then colder weather returns Tuesday with a few snow showers and a high in the mid 30s; more of the same Wednesday with a high in the low 30s.
