From record heat to accumulating snow in Denver
From record heat to accumulating snow across Colorado. Highs will reach about 59 degrees on Saturday before a strong cold front moves through around 10 p.m. Saturday night. Temperatures will tumble, with highs only near 29 degrees on Sunday.
That front will also bring accumulating snow to much of the state. Snow develops across the high country early Saturday morning, then intensifies through the evening hours. Travel could become tricky at mountain pass level and along the I-70 corridor by the Saturday evening commute.
Saturday night into Sunday morning, snow levels drop quickly. Accumulations are possible from Fort Collins to Boulder, Denver, Castle Rock, and Colorado Springs, extending all the way to Colorado’s southern border.
Storm totals of 4 to 8 inches are expected across the high country, with locally higher amounts up to 14 inches at mountain pass level in the northern mountains and the highest peaks.
Up to 5 inches is possible in the foothills, with around 4 inches across the Denver metro.
Keep in mind, with temperatures near 59 degrees on Saturday, some snow will melt initially. That could lead to slushy, wet accumulations, especially early in the event.

Authorities have issued an evacuation warning for homes near a wildfire that broke out in southwest Boulder on Saturday afternoon.
Just before 1 p.m., Boulder Fire Rescue said a wildfire sparked in the southwest part of Boulder’s Chautauqua neighborhood. The Bluebell Fire is currently estimated to be approximately five acres in size, and more than 50 firefighters are working to bring it under control. Mountain View Fire Rescue is assisting Boulder firefighters with the operation.
Around 1:30, emergency officials issued an evacuation warning to the residents in the area of Chatauqua Cottages. Residents in the area should be prepared in case they need to evacuate suddenly.
Officials have ordered the DFPC Multi-Mission Aircraft (MMA) and Type 1 helicopter to assist in firefighting efforts. Boulder Fire Rescue said the fire has a moderate rate of spread and no containment update is available at this time.
Red Flag warnings remain in place for much of the Front Range as windy and dry conditions persist.
