Warm afternoon temps...

We enjoyed a wonderful weather weekend with chilly nights and sunny, comfortable afternoons. As we get back into the regular routine today, some high clouds will stream overhead at times, but a lot of sun should get through with highs around 80 degrees.

Tomorrow's weather will be much the same with some mid and high level clouds at times and highs close to 80.

A weak cold front will slide through Wednesday morning, and there will be the chance of a few showers very late Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. However, any showers will be brief and relatively light in nature.

Behind the front, cooler, drier air will arrive Thursday through the upcoming weekend. Highs will likely return to the lower 70s at most with some chilly nights on tap again.

Fall foliage...

Many elevations above 4000' or 4500' in the mountains have now passed peak color, but some great color is there to enjoy this week in the 2500' to 3500' range.
