After a solid dump of springtime snow Sunday night, including widespread thundersnow, things will turn quiet for the week ahead with temperatures trending from downright chilly back to t-shirt weather by week’s end. We recap last night’s snowstorm, check the snowfall totals, and detail the Front Range forecast for the next seven days. Let’s dive in!
Last week’s dumping of wet snow in the Front Range occurred three years to the day after our most recent significant snowstorm back in March of 2021. We do a comparative analysis between these two epic mid-March snowstorms, examining their distinct storm tracks, the meteorological factors contributing to their varied snowfall production, and discuss their differing forecast hype. We also explore their respective snow totals and distribution across the Denver Metro area, including a detailed account of how these two snowstorms were able to make Front Range history exactly three years apart despite being so fundamentally different.
