Moisture Laden Storm and Colder Air Arrives Late Friday

By Ed Greene

DENVER (CBS4) -A cool Thursday - the official high reached 53 degrees - normal for this time of year is 65 - and snow on the ground for the greater Denver metro area still leads our forecast. Look for clearing skies overnight and by morning we could see sunny to partly sunny skies. But as Friday wears on look for increasing clouds with rain developing by afternoon, then mixing with or changing over to snow as darkness falls. Friday's high will only be in the upper 40s. Snow continued overnight into Saturday and then gradually ends by evening. Look for 2-4" across the greater metro area with more to the south and west - higher up - possibly seeing a foot in some foothills locations. High Saturday only in the upper 30s. Denver is not included in any Winter Weather Alerts - but many mountain locations and into the foothills along with a few counties out east are currently under a Winter Storm Watch.

Sunday dawns sunny with a high in the low 50s. Monday will see an increase in clouds once again with scattered rain showers developing - a high in the mid to upper 50s. Mostly cloudy with scattered showers again on Tuesday - a high in the upper 50s.
