DENVER (KDVR) — Early sunshine leads to afternoon clouds along the Front Range with brisk winds while rain and snow showers linger in the high country.
Wednesday will be a Pinpoint Weather Alert Day due to a cooler, cloudy day with rain and snow showers.
Weather today: More clouds and breezy
Denver will see early sunshine, but afternoon clouds increase as highs are mild, near 70 degrees.
Winds will be brisk Tuesday afternoon, allowing for fire weather warnings along the plains and Palmer Divide.
Rain and snow showers push through the high country, mostly during the first half of the day and above 8,500 feet. Winter weather advisories remain in effect until noon on Wednesday with more snow overnight Tuesday.
Weather tonight: Cloudy and cooler
Clouds continue to increase overnight with light snow in the high country. Lows will dip near to freezing in Denver with a lighter wind.
Looking ahead: Hard freeze, rain/snow chances
Wednesday will be noticeably cooler with highs in the middle 40s, cloudy skies and possible rain and snow showers in the metro. Because it’s been warm, roads will mostly be wet with a slushy dusting possible on grassy surfaces.
Temperatures then dip into the upper 20s Wednesday night, giving the Front Range its first hard freeze of the season.
Sunshine is back for Halloween on Thursday, but highs are below average in the upper 50s.
