Spring doesn’t officially begin until next Friday afternoon, but this weekend will seem springlike. Temperatures in Denver, Boulder, and Fort Collins are likely to range from the mid 60 to low 70s (Sunday will probably be a little warmer than Saturday).  There may be a short spell of cooler, unsettled weather on Tuesday. But at this point no large storms or major cold is expected over the next week.

The snowy February helped the mountain snowpack, with many mountain areas right around average for this time of year. The San Juan range in southwestern Colorado is still running below average.
