DENVER (KDVR) — Summer heat refuses to let go, but the Denver weather forecast will feature a brief cool down.
Below-normal temperatures will start on Sunday and continue into the first couple of days of next week. Showers will be possible late Sunday as well.
Weather tonight: Winds decrease
A passing cold front overnight Saturday will shut clouds out of the area, end rain, and also decrease winds. That said, it will remain a bit breezy with a southwest wind of around 5 to 15 mph.
Lows will be closer to seasonal values around the metro. The mountains will be considerably colder.
Weather tomorrow: Cooler but still breezy; showers late
Sunday begins sunny and cool. Winds start from the north and turn northeast around 10-20 miles per hour with gusts over 30 miles per hour again possible.
Temperatures drop to highs only in the 60s for much of the state, but southeast Colorado likely stays in the 80s. Showers may form along the front range foothills and into the mountains beginning in the afternoon. Some of the highest elevations may also see snow overnight Sunday.
Looking ahead: Unseasonably warm temps to return
The area will cool further on Monday with highs only in the lower 60s, some places possibly only in the upper 50s. More showers will be possible in the late afternoon and evening and winds will stay a bit breezy. Tuesday brings a return of sunny skies, though the metro will remain in the 60s.
The Denver metro jumps back into the 70s starting Wednesday and look to stay there into the middle of October, so temperatures will be likely running 10 degrees or more above normal during this stretch.
Lots of sunshine is also expected. Rain chances look minimal for the time being.
