DENVER — A big cooldown will arrive in Colorado, just in time for Halloween.
The 9NEWS Weather Impact team is tracking the potential for a Weather Impact Day early next week.
If the models hold, a strong storm will approach from the west, bringing Colorado a big cooldown starting on Tuesday. Denver will see a 50+ degree swing between Sunday and next Wednesday.
Denver has a high likelihood of seeing its first freeze of the season as well as a good chance at its first snow of the season.
The Front Range and eastern plains, including the Denver metro area, are likely to see rain initially before a possible flip to snow for Tuesday night or Wednesday morning.
Make sure to get those sprinklers blown out if you haven't already as Colorado could see a few days of sub-freezing temperatures for the first time this season next week.
The 9NEWS Weather Impact team will keep a close eye on that storm system, but in the meantime, enjoy the warmer weather while we've got it.
