Another cool day with rain and snow chances to end the week in Colorado

It's opening day for the Colorado Rockies in Denver on Friday, and the weather will be typical spring weather in Colorado. Cool and cloudy, with a bit of a breeze, and there are chances of rain and snow throughout the day.

It is also the second of three First Alert Weather days this week because of the typical atypical weather.

High temperatures will only climb into the upper 30s to low 40s, with wind gusting up to 30 miles per hour at times.

The rain and snow chances across the Denver metro area are expected to increase by mid-morning, with intermittent rain and snow showers anticipated this afternoon.

By this evening, that will transition over to snow, falling through the overnight hours before gradually clearing early Saturday morning.

Snow accumulations across the Denver area will be minimal.
