This week’s snow event, while certainly welcomed, is not nearly enough not help the ongoing extreme drought across the entire state of Colorado. With a dry stretch shaping up through the weekend ahead, Boulder will most likely polish off January with its 7th consecutive month of below normal precipitation. We recap the recent “snowstorm”, discuss the current state of the drought, update you on the evolving La Niña, and provide our prediction for what lies ahead the rest of winter.
Winter weather returns to the entire Front Range Monday and Tuesday with light snow on the table for the area. We discuss factors contributing to the early week snow and provide our snowfall forecast map. By mid-week, the pattern will shift abruptly and we could be talking 60 degrees come Friday. Read on for our complete outlook of this week’s weather.
The week starts out with a southern track snowstorm for the higher terrain, with only a trace to 1/2″ expected in the Denver Metro. Westerly flow ensues for the remainder of the week, with the potential for gusty winds reappearing around midweek. Outside of a brief period of Chinook warming on Wednesday, highs will remain at or slightly below average through the week ahead and into the upcoming weekend.
The return of winter this past weekend has been well-received by most! Quiet weather starts the week under high pressure with temperatures on the rise and the fresh snow melting. However, expect a gradual trend toward chillier temperatures later in the week. The extended outlook shows signs of an active pattern with snow chances over the weekend and into next week. Let’s take a look!
It hasn’t snowed in our area since last year! Well….December 28th to be more precise. However, white stuff is once again in the forecast to begin 2021. A Four Corners low pressure system will spread winter weather back into the Front Range Saturday into Saturday night. Let’s take a look at the timing and potential snowfall amounts in what is sure to be another disappointing snowfall event.
UPDATE (7:00AM Sat 1/9/21): Adjusted snowfall forecast map slightly
The first week of 2021 will not make much of a mark for the Front Range. We’re watching a series of quick-moving but ultimately weak storm systems that will scurry across the Rockies throughout the upcoming week. Mountain snow will be the main story, but we’ve also got a bora wind event in the works for the Plains and possibly some late-week snow as well. Read on for all the details.
We hope that each and every one of you had a great holiday so far and that it continues into the New Year. This week’s weather will feature light snow accumulations Monday into Tuesday alongside chilly temperatures for much of the week ahead. We’re also watching another system later in the week which could ring in the New Year with more snow. Read on for all the details.
