After a pleasant weather weekend, Denver will enjoy a mild start to the week.
Wind, fire danger, and a little mountain snow will be the main weather talking points over the next week!
Winds could be particularly strong and widespread on Wednesday, although details are still somewhat uncertain. The mountains may pick up a few inches of snow as well.
