Denver is headed for a mostly sunny Sunday with highs in the 80s before a cooler, wetter stretch moves in early this week.

Warm Sunday, With Gusts Possible

Temperatures should reach the 80s. Winds will turn SE/SSE by the afternoon. Possible high-based virga could bring gusts of 25 to 30 knots; gusts at KDEN and KAPA are forecast at 20 to 25 knots.

A slight chance of rain showers arrives Sunday evening, with a 20% chance of precipitation. Lingering showers remain possible overnight. The low is forecast at 57.

Cooler And Stormier Monday Through Wednesday

Monday brings a chance of showers and thunderstorms. The National Weather Service Denver/Boulder forecast calls for a cooler Tuesday, with possible showers and thunderstorms.

Wednesday could bring heavier rain to parts of the region, but the exact location and amount remain uncertain, so outdoor plans may need a backup option.

Sunshine Returns Before The Weekend

Heavier rain could affect parts of the region Thursday, though the location and amount remain uncertain. The system and better rain chances should begin pushing east Friday, which is expected to start partly sunny and dry. Sunshine is forecast Saturday, though the timing of the next system over the weekend remains uncertain.

No watches, warnings or advisories are listed for the Denver forecast area. In the mountains, snow chances remain limited mainly to flurries or a light dusting at elevations above 12,000 feet.
