Denver Weather Update: Weekend Forecast Promises Warmer Temperatures Amid Fire Risks
Denver, CO – Residents can expect mostly cloudy skies with light scattered showers in the early morning, gradually clearing as the day progresses from west to east. The weekend forecast signals a return to warmer and drier conditions, with temperatures expected to reach the mid-70s on Saturday and even climbing into the low 80s by Sunday.
While Saturday may see a few spotty storms late in the day, Sunday promises significantly more sunshine. However, alongside the warmer temperatures, windy conditions are anticipated, particularly on Sunday. This increase in wind will elevate fire risks across the region. A Fire Weather Watch has been issued from 11 am to 8 pm for the Interstate 25 corridor and Eastern Plains. Wind gusts could reach up to 45 mph, coupled with low humidity, creating a heightened danger for wildfires.
