Colorado's snowstorm on Friday, Saturday will help – but it's not good news for farmers, experts say

Temperatures are expected to climb this week, with predicted sun and highs in the 80s by Thursday, and through the weekend.

It'll be mainly dry Monday, but another round of storms returns late Monday night into Tuesday.
