DENVER (KDVR) — The Denver weather forecast includes pleasant weather lasting through Sunday, then frequent showers and perhaps a storm or two push into the metro area on Monday.

A big cooldown will pair with these dreary conditions as highs return to well below average values to ring in the official start to Autumn. Tuesday will be the Denver metro’s coolest day this week before highs gradually trend upward to round out the work week with plenty of sunshine.
Weather today: Warm with a possible shower
Mostly sunny skies dominate the area yet again as highs max out in the upper 70s and lower 80s. There is an isolated shower chance Sunday afternoon, but most of the area will remain dry. Winds will be out of the southwest anywhere from 5-15 mph.

Weather tonight: Increasing clouds
Sunday night features partly cloudy skies as lows drop into the middle 50s. Clouds will increase into Monday ahead of more shower and storm chances in the afternoon, winds will be out of the southwest anywhere from 5-15.

Looking ahead: Unsettled start to work week
As a storm system drifts down from our northwest, showers and perhaps a few rumbles of thunder are possible starting Monday afternoon and lasting through Tuesday.
The rain should be most widespread late Monday into the overnight hours, becoming more intermittent by Tuesday afternoon. Very cool conditions will settle in the metro temporarily, with highs only in the lower half of the 60s on Tuesday.

Cooler mornings and dry weather will follow in the wake of this rain with lows in the mid to upper 40s midweek as highs begin moving back toward the upper 70s by the end of the work week. In fact, the metro area could be touching 80 degrees again by next Saturday, which would be a tad warmer than usual for late September.
