It’s been quite a long time since our last measurable precipitation in the Front Range, but that will change abruptly this weekend with the arrival of our next autumn storm system. Unfortunately the slow-moving low pressure will dive too far south into Arizona, largely fizzling out before ever reaching northeast Colorado. Nonetheless, it will bring a bit of rain, snow and much colder temperatures to our area for a few days. Read on for our latest thoughts on how the unsettled weekend ahead will play out. We also briefly review the entries to our 2024 First Snowfall Contest with predictions actually trending towards a later date than Boulder’s climatology would suggest (color us shocked!). There will indeed be some snowflakes in our forecast domain this weekend, but Boulder is not expected to see accumulating snow.

Temperatures across the Front Range will remain unseasonably warm for much of the week ahead pushing into the 70s and 80s. Precipitation will once again be vacant from the forecast early this week with no major weather systems to speak of. However, that all changes as we head into Friday and the weekend as our team is tracking a strong storm system that is taking aim on Colorado. Rather large uncertainty still remains in the exact outcome for us, but we discuss the odds of seeing our first snow and/or much-needed rainfall.

The Northern Lights put on a spectacular show across the Front Range Thursday night, and there’s a chance for an encore performance tonight! While the display is not likely to be as intense or widespread Friday night, mostly clear skies and comfortable temperatures will make it a perfect evening to try your luck in the Denver Metro area. Read on for our team’s recommendation on the best time and place to head out to take in the Northern Lights Friday night in Colorado!
