Saturday and Sunday will both be very hot with temperatures running well into the 90s and even a few triple digits, mainly on Sunday. We're going to get windy and a bit cooler on Monday before a big cool down on Tuesday. Pretty much all long-range modeling is suggesting there will be rain and snow across Colorado, and even some accumulating snow at elevations mainly over 7,000 to 8,000 feet. This will be followed by the first freeze of the season on Wednesday.
