A medium-impact winter storm is headed for eastern Colorado, bringing some snowfall and strong winds to parts of the Denver Metro area late Wednesday night into Thursday afternoon. Weather models show varying predictions, but the southern and southeast suburbs of Denver are favored most for up to a couple inches of snow, with higher totals possible along and east of the Palmer Divide. We discuss the rift in the model guidance that is leading to the uncertainty, as well as the latest timing and most likely outcome from this somewhat warmer southern-track winter storm.

2025 has been exceptionally cold and snowy in the Front Range so far, but is that finally about to change? This week we can expect several tranquil sunny days to begin but we are watching the threat for more snow as a low-pressure system approaches from California by Thursday.
January is typically our driest month of the year, but in 2025 it’s been anything but as another round of fluffy snow dumped on the Front Range Friday night into Saturday. We briefly review both the snow totals from this single storm and the seasonal ones.
Snow began overnight across the entire Denver Metro area which has led to slick travel region-wide this morning as our temperatures sit in the teens. Generally light snow will continue in earnest through the day before wrapping up this evening from east to west. We take a look at snowfall totals so far and some of the factors influencing how much more fluffy snow is still to come.
We haven’t really seen much melting of the more than a foot of snow that fell last weekend in Boulder, but additional white stuff is indeed on the way this weekend! A slow-moving storm system will bring relatively light but long-lasting snow to the area Friday night into Saturday night, with a heavy focus on the northern Front Range this time (Boulder and Larimer Counties). Some locations could see upwards of a foot of snow as temperatures plummet back into the teens for Saturday. Let’s take a look!
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.
