Milder weather try to return this afternoon with partly cloudy skies and highs in the low 50s for Denver and 40s for the northeast plains.

A change in the weather pattern will begin Friday as a cold front slides southward from Canada. The morning will be dry, but some snow showers will develop in the afternoon.

Colder temperatures and snow are likely for the mountains and the Denver area for the weekend. The trend continue toward much colder temperatures. Highs will be in the 30s on Saturday, but just in the teens to low 20s on Sunday.

The mountains can expect 6 to 12 inches of snow over the weekend into Monday. Denver and the eastern plains may pick up a few inches of snow Saturday afternoon through Sunday morning.

Cold conditions will continue into early next week, followed by a moderation in temperatures by next Wednesday.
