Denver begins a mild weekend Friday as the city continues to experience above-average temperatures.
Good news! Increasing moisture is moving in which is raising humidities in the foothills. The strongest winds have also shifted to Jefferson/Gilpin/Clear Creek counties. It will be dry and windy in the foothills today, but not as extremely dry as yesterday.
