Not Much Moisture, If Any, for Denver Into Next Week

By Ed Greene

DENVER (CBS4) - Our dry and gusty weather continued on Thursday with those downsloping winds pushing our high to 70 degrees downtown and 72 degrees for the official high out at the airport. A cold front is slowly backing into Colorado from the east and therefore it will be cooler the closer to the border you go tomorrow, but winds should again be downslope for Denver so we can expect another high near 70 degrees. Late Friday and again early Sunday we could see a few weak disturbances produce some light snow or snow showers over the northern and central mountains.

Then that cold front will back all they way east to the foothills by Saturday, so the temperatures in Denver will be cooler with a more seasonal high in the mid 50s under partly cloudy skies. Partly cloudy for Sunday and a few degrees warmer - a high near 60 degrees. Little change on Monday - partly cloudy and a high in the low 60s. Then Tuesday we'll get back into that westerly downslope flow which will again push our high to a mild 70 degrees.
