As wet as it was early in 2022, things really dried out fast over the course of March and April. Several grass fires were reported across the state on twenty or more Red Flag days that occurred during the month. When it was all said and done, Boulder had just one day of measurable rainfall in April and no measurable snow at all! Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during April and how it relates to climatology.

This is an important forecast discussion involving a particularly dangerous situation that will unfold on Friday with extremely explosive fire conditions all day long. We review the atmospheric ingredients leading to such a dire situation and look at just how common days like this are in our climatology (spoiler: it’s very rare).
We’ve got a quick forecast update for you on this beautiful Friday afternoon. You probably have heard already, but it appears that snow will make a return to the Front Range next week— perhaps even in the form of a monster snowstorm if we play our cards right. Let’s take a look at this admittedly still uncertain forecast and what could potentially transpire next week across the area.
Though the weather pattern remained fairly active and snowy, March 2022 broke the short streak of months with above average precipitation in Boulder. The NCAR Fire, which sparked on the 26th, somewhat curbed the community’s positivity about the improving drought situation since the New Year. Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during March and how it relates to climatology.
Absolutely gorgeous weather is taking shape for the weekend ahead with temperatures forecast to soar towards to the 80-degree mark in the Denver area. A few of these days could be record-setting for the region! As always, the warmth does have a planned expiration date as the next spring storm system will arrive around Tuesday with rain, snow and colder temperatures in tow.
Nothing is ever easy in Front Range weather! The incoming spring, or shall we say winter, storm remains a very challenging forecast as models struggle to resolve where the heaviest precipitation will fall Wednesday into Thursday, the precise timing on when rain will change to snow, and exactly where temperatures will bottom out at overnight. All of these factors are coming together to make for a complicated blend of moderate to heavy rain and soupy snow this evening into Thursday. Most models would have us believe a deluge of precipitation is about to unleash on the Denver area, but there are some red flags. We discuss the latest on this evolving storm which is sure to create quite the mess for everyone over the next 36 hours.
