Health officials across Colorado are urging people to keep up our state's success in 'flattening' the growth of the coronavirus — residents are asked to hold their small gatherings outdoors whenever possible, wear masks and adhere to social distancing guidelines. But it's not easy to hold a family gathering outside if it's raining! Fortunately, Denver's metro area will see a sunny sky throughout the weekend, and temperatures are expected to rise up into the 90s, according to the National Weather Service.
