DENVER — FORECAST BY: Ed Greene
TODAY AT A GLANCE: As spring arrives, so do spring-like temperatures: highs in the 60s today through Saturday.
The storm system that brought us all that snow at the end of last week is still hanging around but well to the south of Colorado, and still might scatter a snow shower two over the southern mountains this afternoon.
Then that system picks up speed and moves off to the east and will finally be out of the area. By Thursday moisture works its way into the northwest flow over the state with the result being a few mountain snow showers and gusty winds.
Denver and the plains stay mild and dry until at least Saturday. By Sunday, our next system moves into the state with a chance for rain Sunday - and snow Sunday night into Monday - with highs only in the 30s as we start next week
TUESDAY (SPRING BEGINS AT 9:06 P.M.): Mostly sunny and mild, high 63; mostly clear tonight, low 35.
WEDNESDAY: Mostly sunny and staying mild, high 62; mostly clear overnight, low 35.
THURSDAY: Mostly sunny and continued mild, high 66; clear skies overnight, low 36.
