Denver is starting Thursday, November 12, with clear skies and temperatures around the mid-40s before a sunny afternoon pushes the mercury close to 68 degrees. It is one more warm, dry day before the weekend brings a noticeable cooldown across the metro area.
Sunny Thursday Brings Near-68 Temperatures
Mostly sunny skies will dominate Thursday, with south or south-southwest drainage winds early, shifting to northeast late morning into early afternoon and east after 21Z. Temperatures should climb steadily through the morning, peak near 68 degrees, then ease back toward the low 60s late in the afternoon.
How 68 Degrees Compares With Denver’s November Record
A record offers a benchmark, but not a measure of a typical November day: National Weather Service Denver/Boulder records show Denver reached 83° on Nov. 2, 2025, above Thursday’s forecast high of 68°.
Thursday night stays mostly clear, with a low around 39 degrees and a light southwest breeze. The National Weather Service’s Denver/Boulder forecast calls for above-normal temperatures and dry conditions through Friday.
Weekend Cooldown Looks Dry In Denver
Friday will be partly sunny and cooler, with a high near 64 degrees and light winds. Overnight temperatures will fall to about 37 degrees under mostly cloudy skies.
Saturday and Sunday will feel more like mid-November, with highs near 56 and 58 degrees, respectively. Denver has only a small chance of rain this weekend, while the higher elevations could see rain and snow showers and some slick conditions on mountain passes.
Another Warmup Arrives Before Midweek Shower Chances
Quiet weather brings a brief warm-up Monday and most of Tuesday, with temperatures in the high 50s, possibly reaching 60 degrees in the Denver metro. A possible system may bring rain or snow showers to the mountains Wednesday; Denver’s high is forecast around 56 degrees.
No watches, warnings or advisories are in effect for the Denver area, according to National Weather Service Denver/Boulder.
