One more warm day in Colorado before big changes arrive by the weekend

Friday will again bring another above average afternoon, however, today will come with more clouds across our sky. If you’re looking to spend ample amounts of time outside, today would be the day to do so.
CBS
High temperatures will be warm this afternoon, climbing into the mid to upper 70s across the Denver metro area. Eastern Colorado could see highs climb into the 80s, where sun will linger a little longer.
Warmth in the high country will keep initial rounds of precipitation as a rain and snow mix.
CBS
The wet weather will arrive in two waves going into the weekend, with the first arriving late Friday.
By Friday evening, spotty rain showers will begin to fall, mainly north of the Denver metro area. Overnight showers will become more widespread and will fall off and on through Saturday morning.
Rain and snow in the mountains will begin to transition over to snow as temperatures cool.
CBS
We will see a lull in the precipitation on Saturday afternoon, with just a few spotty showers possible. By Saturday evening the next wave of precipitation will move in. Overnight rain showers will transition over to a rain/snow mix. The Palmer Divide, foothills, and the eastern plains could see a little more snow than rain as temperatures will cool enough to allow that transition.
CBS
Snow totals in the high country won’t amount to much, as snow levels will likely be above 9,000 feet. For mountain areas above 8,000 feet, we could see 1 to 3 inches of snow. Above 9,000 feet, totals will range from 2 to 6 inches.
As far as the lower elevations, trace amounts of snow are expected.

Liquid eggs sold in Colorado recalled for possible bleach contamination

The maker of Egg Beaters and Bob Evans liquid eggs is recalling thousands of pounds of product that may be contaminated with a bleach cleaning solution, including those sold in Colorado, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
Michigan-based Cargill Kitchen Solutions announced the recall of 212,268 pounds of liquid eggs on Friday after someone submitted a tip to the USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service.
Liquid eggs sold in Arizona, California, Florida, Illinois and Iowa and sent to distributors in Ohio and Texas were also included in the recall, and it’s possible the product was distributed nationwide.
Federal officials do not expect any health impacts from eating contaminated products and there have not been any confirmed reports of adverse reactions. Anyone with a recalled product in their fridge should throw it away or return it to the store.
Product covered by the recall include:
- 32-ounce carton of Egg Beaters Original Liquid Egg Substitute with a use-by date of Aug. 10, 2025;
- 32-ounce carton of Egg Beaters Cage-Free Original Liquid Egg Substitute with a use-by date of Aug. 9, 2025;

Is this town really the worst place to live in Colorado? Find out why a study says so

Which US cities are the best to live in? See the top 10 ranking
U.S. News and World Report has released its annual list of the best U.S. cities to live in for 2024. (Scripps News)
Scripps News
Clifton, an unincorporated town of about 20,000 people on Colorado’s Western Slope, was named the worst place to live in the state by financial news site 24/7 Wall St.
The site’s study picked the worst place to live in every state, compiling its rankings using 22 factors such as poverty rates, household income and deaths from substance abuse. The data sources for the rankings include the U.S. Census Bureau, the FBI and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Here’s what the numbers say about Clifton — nestled between Grand Junction and Palisades — and what supporters of the city like about it.
Why did Clifton rank poorly?
Clifton fell well behind the rest of the state by several financial metrics. Its poverty rate of 17.6% was almost twice the state’s 9.6%. The median home value of $166,900 was less than half the state average of $397,500. And the median household income of $49,350 was a little above 60% of the state’s average of $80,184.
Clifton actually had slightly less drug-induced mortality, with 25.5 deaths per 100,000 people, compared with the state’s average of 26.5 per 100,000.
What brings people to Clifton?
By virtue of its location, Clifton provides easy access to the agriculture-rich region of southwest Colorado. It sits near wineries, orchards and farms with all varieties of seasonal produce, as well as access to good locations for outdoor recreation, according to online travel guide Uncover Colorado.
What are the worst places to live in neighboring states?
The 24/7 Wall St. report taps New Kingman-Butler, Arizona; Price, Utah; Riverton, Wyoming; Española, New Mexico; Lexington, Nebraska; Poteau, Oklahoma; and Augusta, Kansas, as the worst cities in their respective states.
