The week starts off with light snow and bitter cold Arctic air entrenched across the Front Range, but it won’t last long as the frigid airmass exits to our east quickly on Tuesday. While the rest of the week won’t exactly be warm, there will be a general upward trend in our temperatures back into the realm of normalcy. Our next chance of snow in the pipeline could arrive during the upcoming weekend. Read on for more details.

As of Sunday afternoon, skies are sunny and Round #1 of our Arctic Blast is in the books. This wave, which was always more about the white stuff than the extreme chill, delivered several fluffy inches of snow to the entire area, even over a foot in parts of Boulder County. Despite how nice it looks outside now, we are closely tracking Round #2 arriving Sunday evening into Monday with even colder air and another pulse of fluffy snowfall. Let’s take a look.
Our anticipated Arctic cold front is pushing southward across northern Wyoming right now and is on-track to arrive into the Denver area this afternoon. Snowflakes will be slightly delayed, but are expected to quickly develop early this evening impacting at least some of the commute window as travel turns very treacherous through the evening. The latest model data points to a slightly more impactful snow event unfolding, especially for Boulder County. We’ve increased snow totals in these areas. We also discuss the temperature outlook for the rest of the frigid holiday weekend ahead.
The first major Arctic blast of the season is set to arrive Friday afternoon, bringing a dramatic drop in temperatures and widespread snowfall to Boulder and the Front Range. Expect temperatures to plummet from the 60s on Thursday to the single digits by Saturday morning, with several inches of fluffy snow blanketing the area. The bitter cold will linger through Tuesday, with temperatures below freezing for nearly 100 hours and below 15°F for around 72 hours. Read on for the latest details on what will definitely be a frigid and snowy MLK Day weekend across most of Colorado!
This week will feature a mixture of calm and chaos in Front Range Colorado! While the early part of the week will be relatively quiet with cool temperatures, a significant change in our weather is brewing for Friday. An Arctic blast is set to slam eastern Colorado during the late-day period, ushering in the coldest air of the season this weekend alongside widespread snowfall. Enjoy the sunshine and mild conditions the next several days, but begin preparations for the deep freeze and snowy conditions ahead!
For the third time in six days, a weak storm system brought light snow to the Denver Metro area. We briefly review both the snow totals from this single storm and seasonally.
Snow has quickly developed this morning across southern portions of the Denver Metro area, while things remain mostly dry throughout Boulder County under the protection of downslope flow. We take a look at current conditions across the region, the expected blustery wind speeds for today, and how much snow will fall throughout the morning.
Light snow fell once again across the entire Front Range Monday night into Tuesday, with most locations picking up 2 to 5 inches of fluffy accumulation, a tad less than forecast in some spots. We briefly review both the snow totals from this single storm and the seasonal ones.
