Thornton’s weekend starts off a bit unsettled, then turns pleasant and warmer

A pretty decent looking three-day period ahead. Today will be the coolest day of the period and offer a chance for showers but then we see things become more stable and warmer.

Mostly cloudy skies will be above most of the day today. High temperatures will top out near 60 degrees. The afternoon and evening bring a chance for a rain shower although it doesn’t look like any precipitation that falls will amount to much. Tonight, any shower chances will end by midnight. Skies will then see some clearing. Overnight lows will be in the low to mid-30s.

Saturday will be the most pleasant of the three days. Mostly sunny skies will be above and we will be dry. Beyond some slightly breezy PM winds, it will be calm. Highs will reach the mid-60s. Saturday night, skies will be mostly clear with lows in the mid-30s.

Easter Sunday starts off with sunny skies and calm conditions. The daytime hours will see a few clouds arrive and winds will become breezy in the afternoon. Highs will reach the mid-60s. The afternoon and evening bring a slight chance for some light rain showers. A cold front does move in Sunday night and that may offer up some light snow into Monday morning.
