After several days of cool mornings and unseasonably warm afternoons, local weather conditions will finally be more seasonally appropriate on Friday. The high is 61, which is very close to the average high temperature. We’ll slowly build more clouds throughout the day. No need to worry about wind or rain, neither is in the forecast for Friday. Still, you’ll probably need a jacket for some of the day.

A jacket would be helpful Friday night too. Cloudy evening skies will help retain a little heat, but temperatures will still fall into the 40s around 10:00p.m.

Last, but not least, the five day forecast is showing a continued dry pattern. A couple of clouds on Friday and Saturday will appear, but no rain is forecast. Pleasant weather is expected for both the Rams’ and Broncos’ football games. Sun and warmer temperatures will return Sunday and into early next week. Our next best shot of rain comes on Wednesday.
