Northerly winds will turn westerly through the afternoon, and that downslope warmth should push highs into the 50s and 60s.

Extended outlook forecast:
A cold front will blow through Colorado on Friday, creating gusty winds out of the north and dropping highs in the plains back into the 40s. A chance for light snow showers and flurries is possible Friday afternoon through early Saturday morning, but very little accumulation is expected.

We will stay chilly but dry on Saturday with a warming trend from Sunday through Tuesday of next week.

A stronger system with snow is possible next Wednesday night through Thursday. If winds can stay easterly at the surface, we have a chance of decent snow accumulation across the plains!
