The high Friday should reach 83 degrees. Friday night, temperatures will dip to a low of about 58 degrees.
The skies over the Denver metropolitan area on Labor Day weekend will be mostly sunny, with temperatures rising to a high of 86 Saturday and peaking at 90 degrees on Sunday, before falling slightly to 88 on Labor Day, according to the NWS.
There’s a 20 percent chance of afternoon rain and thunderstorms on Saturday.
