For the third time in less than two weeks a significant spring storm will spread a hefty helping of precipitation to the Front Range in the coming days. Initially it will be all rain across the Plains Sunday and during the day Monday, but we are concerned about a change-over to snow Monday night into early Tuesday for the lower elevations. Let’s take a look at the storm timeline and how much May snow everyone can expect!
We begin very cold, rainy and snowy for some, but things will improve through the week slowly with a chance at hitting 80 degrees again by week’s end. Overall, though, the week remains fairly unsettled which is typical for this time of year and is welcomed considering the lingering drought. Let’s take a look at the forecast.
After our first real taste of summer the last few days, the weather will revert to more seasonal conditions Sunday into Monday. For Front Range Colorado in early May, that means severe weather, soaking rainfall and snow in the higher terrain. Let’s take a look at the latest on the stormy, soggy and snowy weather about to unfold!
