Windy & Mild Ahead Of Next Cold Front

By Chris Spears

DENVER (CBS4) - Lots of cloud cover over the Front Range and I-25 corridor. All due to westerly winds mixed with moisture creating a mountain wave cloud east of the Continental Divide.

Every now and then some of that wind will spill out of the Front Range and into the western part of the Interstate 25 urban corridor.

Looking ahead there's a storm moving into Washington and British Columbia right now and it will move to the east over the next few days. While the main part of this weather maker will stay north of Colorado it will drag a cold front through here by Friday, knocking temperatures back roughly 20 degrees.

It will also produce some light snow in the mountains and potentially a few flurries or stray snow showers between Denver, Boulder, Greeley and Fort Collins sometime early Friday.

The upcoming weekend looks sunny and dry.
