⦁❶⦁ Freezing drizzle turns to snow this afternoon/evening bringing a trace to 2 inches to the Front Range by sunrise Sunday; hefty snow totals for the High Country through the weekend
⦁❷⦁ Highs near or below freezing today falling into the single digits tonight with an Arctic cold front
⦁❸⦁ Another chance of light snow Sunday night into Monday but less certain, amounts expected to be very light
Unseasonably cold temperatures will be in place throughout the week ahead with little hope for any warmer weather in the near-term across Front Range Colorado. A southern-track storm system will bring light snow totals to the Front Range for our Monday. The chance of snow will returns Tuesday into early Thursday as northerly mid-level flow sends ripples of energy to combine with weak surface upslope. Temperatures may finally get out of the 30s by week’s end, but just barely!
The chance of substantial snow in the Front Range Sunday night into Monday has largely vanished into thin air. We discuss why this happened and the now lighter potential snowfall totals to begin the work week.
There was a lot of complaining this week about the poor snow forecast, but it actually turned out pretty okay — not amazing, but definitely okay. Let’s take a quick look at the totals from across the area for what was a rather impressive winter storm by January standards. We also peek ahead to the cold and snowy stretch of weather to come.
Widespread heavy snow is on the way for the entire Front Range Tuesday evening into Wednesday afternoon. A few subtle changes in the forecast have led to us increasing snowfall amounts a tad across the region. Read on for our latest detailed forecast discussion, newly amended snowfall forecast map, updated storm timeline, and more!
A major winter storm set to impact the Front Range Tuesday night through Wednesday. The heaviest snowfall will likely be focused east of Interstate 25 where up to 10″ could fall, with lesser amounts in Boulder and the Foothills. Another chance of light snow on Friday will round out a rather cold overall week for the Denver Metro area. Read on for our complete outlook of the week ahead, including our preliminary snowfall forecast map for the midweek snowstorm.
⦁❶⦁ A mountain wave will lead to widespread gusty winds today, strongest in and near the Foothills in excess of 50 MPH
⦁❷⦁ Mostly sunny on Tuesday with highs in the middle 50s
⦁❸⦁ A storm system races across the state on Wednesday, but develops in an unfavorable location too far north and east for Denver — snow chances are not great
⦁❹⦁ Much cooler on Wednesday in the 30s with a slight chance of snow showers — 0 to 1″ of accumulation possible on the grassy surfaces
