The unseasonably cold weather in place across Colorado is not in any hurry to get out of here. Daytime highs will be nearly 30 degrees below normal through Saturday afternoon, which puts our afternoon temperatures mostly in the low 20s here in the metro area. Fortunately, by Friday afternoon sunshine and dry conditions will return.
Saturday will be mostly sunny and dry with daytime high temperatures in the upper 30s.
On Sunday, the sunshine will stick around and daytime high temperatures will climb to the low 50.
