Mostly sunny skies and warm temperatures in the 50s Friday and Saturday will be a short reprieve from snow before another storm hits Denver on the weekend.

There’s a slight chance for snow before 1 p.m. on Monday. Rain could fall between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. and it could snow after that, the NWS said.
