DENVER, Colo. -- Fall officially starts Tuesday at 3:19 p.m., but it will feel a little more like winter in some spots.
Tuesday will start off chilly. Temperatures will dip into the 30s in some spots, spurring a FREEZE WARNING for the western slope and Palmer Divide. This warning is in effect until 9 a.m. Tuesday.
A strong cold front roared into Colorado on Monday morning and brought an abrupt end to the lovely summer weather over the weekend. Temperatures took a dive from the 80s to the upper 30s over the Metro area and rain was mixed with snow. In the mountains and foothills, wet snow fell for most of the day, bringing over 10 inches of snow to some mountain locations just west of Denver.

Cool weather...I remember something about having to wear sweaters and such. 100+ degrees here in SoCal with Santa Ana winds added to it. [sigh]...one day closer to winter.
27 degrees at the Slim Ranch this AM.
OOH, you got a freeze. I am worried we might have one tonight. I am not ready to lose my tomatoes & such... might bring them in.
I picked everything a week or so ago. Our first frost is usually around this time.
Only thing left are apples, they can take it (I hope...)
And well to the north of you it will be 95 later this week in southeastern WA State.
Yup. My son in Denver logged on yesterday to tell me it was snowing. We have termination dust on the mountains here, but at least it’s not like it was LAST summer. We had snow on the mountains on July 21. Not a record, but still...
