Happy Wednesday! Ingredients are already starting to come together for a quick shot of precipitation this evening with rain changing to heavy wet snow across the entire area. Forecasting Front Range snow isn’t always as easy as we may make it look and tonight’s forecast is a prime example with uncertainty still remaining rather high. Models have been very inconsistent with this wintry system thus far, but the overall recent trend has been towards more snow for everyone. We discuss the latest developments on the storm and the expected snowfall totals across the Boulder-Denver area. Unfortunately the timing of everything will have implications on the Wednesday evening commute.
Premium Storm Update (12/28/22 3:00PM): Things are coming together nicely across the central Rockies and the ongoing forecast for rain changing to snow this evening remains on-track. Recent model runs continue to advertise copious moisture dumping on the Front Range tonight, greater than 0.5″ in many areas, and thus we’re expecting almost everyone will pick up several inches of wet snow from this storm. Read on for the latest timing on the change-over from rain to snow and an updated look at snowfall totals, including which spots could have a chance at double digit snow amounts! READ HERE
