DENVER — We are in for a nice, big warm up on Friday and Saturday.

Skies will become clear tonight with lows in the mid-to upper 30s in Denver, 20s in the mountains.

Warmer and drier weather will cover Colorado on Friday with highs climbing back to the low to mid 70s in Denver. In the mountains, temperatures will be in the middle 50s to low 60s — a delightful spring day!

Saturday will also be warm with highs in the mid-to upper 70s. Clouds will increase during the day as the next storm system begins to move into the state. Some rain and snow showers will develop west of the Continental Divide later in the day.

A storm system will bring a chance for rain to Denver on Easter Sunday, with snow for the mountains. Temperatures will be cooler on Sunday with highs in the 50s for Denver and the Eastern Plains. Sunrise services will not be very sunny. Expect cloudy skies and temperatures around 40 degrees. Showers will be likely in the afternoon.

Monday will stay cool and unsettled with light rain and even some snow possible for Denver. A few inches of snow will fall in the mountains. Highs will only reach the upper 40s in the Denver area, while the mountains stay in the 30s.

Dryer and warmer weather will return next Tuesday and Wednesday.
