This week’s weather will feature a resurgence of winter across the Front Range, but in typical fashion it will be immediately preceded by a few days of spring-like conditions including potentially our first 70-degree day of 2023. The bottom is set to fall out Wednesday night with rain changing to wet snow across the region. Though there is still some uncertainty due to the lead time, accumulating snowfall looks very likely for almost everyone in the Metro area. Read on for our complete outlook of the weather week ahead.

The week ahead will indeed be an active one across the Front Range as an unsettled pattern remains entrenched across the western United States for the foreseeable future. This will spell out periods of gusty downslope winds, persistently cool temperatures and at least one or two chances for snowfall this week in our area, with the best shot coming Wednesday evening and night.
December 2022 was a rather fickle month. Things started off somewhat warm and dry, and there was even a sizable wildfire just west of Boulder in the week leading up to Christmas. The weather quickly turned much colder and snowier for the holidays, including the coldest temperature reading in more than 30 years for the city. Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during December and how it relates to climatology.
Hint: All of the clues are related to Boulder, Denver, and/or Colorado weather. OK, well most of the clues…
October 2022 Graphical Weather Review: Not as bone-dry as last October, but still dry & warm overall
October 2022 was yet another warm and dry month for the Front Range as drought expanded across the state and our precipitation deficit for 2022 grew further.

There’s no snow in the pipeline either, but frost will be possible Thursday morning especially in outlying areas. Read on for our complete outlook of the weather week ahead.
September 2022 followed the trend of the rest of the summer as another hot and somewhat dry month across the Front Range. The month entertained one of the longest and most intense heatwaves for so late in the season. Rainfall was below normal and there was no snow during the month. Smoke from out of state wildfires was also a theme at times. Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during September and how it relates to climatology.
After setting multiple record high temperatures during the heatwave last week followed by a pleasantly cooler weekend, this week our temperatures will stay mostly above normal with some chances for rain mixed in as the remnants of Hurricane Kay pass across the Rockies.
