Enjoy the pleasant warmth this Sunday in Colorado, as temperatures will reach the upper 60s to low 70s within the metro area. For those in the mountains, expect a cooler range of 50s and 60s. If you’re attending the Broncos game at Empower Field, you’ll be greeted with amicable weather, with temperatures remaining in the mid-60s to around 70 degrees. However, keep an eye on the skies as clouds will increase, limiting sunshine towards the game’s conclusion.
A gentle breeze will accompany the game, but conditions are expected to remain dry. The wet weather, however, is anticipated to make an appearance later on Sunday, primarily affecting the higher elevations. The northern mountains are predicted to have the best chance for light rain and snow accumulation. This precipitation will persist through the first half of Monday, predominantly affecting the mountains, though there is a 20% likelihood of a stray rain shower reaching the metro area, with an increased chance of rain on the eastern plains.
As you prepare for Monday, don’t forget to grab a jacket, especially as temperatures will take a significant drop of about 20 degrees from Sunday to Tuesday. The high for Monday is expected to settle in the low 60s across the Front Range, with temperatures plummeting further to the low 50s on Tuesday. As the week progresses, residents should be ready for a sharp transition to cooler weather, highlighting the unpredictability of Colorado’s climate.
