Well, Denver’s snowless streak finally came to an end as a dusting of frozen precipitation was reported at Denver International Airport this past Friday morning. Unfortunately, the week ahead will not continue the trend with a largely dry week expected. We are closely watching a quick-moving storm set to race across the area on Wednesday which could bring white-out conditions to the Mountains and very strong winds to the Denver Metro area. The meager chance of rain/snow with this mid-week system will offer little reprieve for the extreme drought which now encompasses the entire area.

Expect a quick dusting to 1″ across the area, with up to 2″ in localized spots hit hardest by the band impacting central and southern Denver.

Let’s take a look at how we ended up in a severe drought so quickly and where things might go in the winter months ahead.
