COLORADO, USA — FORECAST BY: Meteorologist Danielle Grant
THIS EVENING AT A GLANCE: A few showers are moving across Colorado tonight. Otherwise, expect partly cloudy skies after midnight with lows dropping into the mid 50s overnight.
We'll start your Friday with mostly sunny skies across the Denver metro area but clouds will quickly move in after lunchtime. It will still be a mild end to September with highs in the upper 70s.
A cold front will push into the state Friday, ushering in scattered showers and storms to the High Country and then to the Front Range later Friday evening.
Highs will drop into the lower 70s over the weekend with a good chance of afternoon and evening showers and storms. If you're heading up to the High Country to check out the fall foliage, bring an umbrella! It'll be cooler with scattered showers throughout Saturday and Sunday.
