His hometown received nearly three feet of snow from the Storm of the Century back in March of 1993, sparking his initial interest in impactful weather.

❄️ Storm aftermath — Yesterday’s system exited by afternoon but left widespread tree damage and a striking fresh May snowpack visible on satellite.
🌡️ Overnight downslope — Warm, late‑night downslope spared most of the Denver Metro from a hard freeze; only a few pockets came close.
🌤️ Shortwaves ahead — Two weak disturbances (Thu & Sat) bring small rain chances and minor fronts, but overall conditions stay mild and mostly dry through the weekend.
☀️ Warm pattern returns — Weekend stays pleasant with isolated storms; next week heats up significantly as a ridge builds, pushing highs into the 80s.
This powerful May storm has buried the Front Range in heavy, wet snow overnight, with Boulder picking up around 10 inches while the Foothills are dealing with even bigger totals in excess of 2 feet in spots. Snow will wind down around midday, but winter has one more card to play tonight as a hard freeze settles in. We check in on the latest snow totals, temperatures, power outages and how much additional snow to expect.
After another warm, spring weekend across the Front Range, big wintry changes are brewing for the days ahead! A surprisingly potent May storm is lining up for Colorado, and this one has all the ingredients to deliver a late-season deluge of precipitation. From deep moisture to prolonged upslope and a well‑timed blast of cold air, the setup is primed to be a high‑impact event — and yes, that includes heavy, wet late-season snow for all of us. We discuss the intriguing dynamics of the storm, the most likely snowfall amounts, potential impacts to our trees and power lines, and just how far we will drop below freezing.
