After a bitter cold stretch under the fringes of the Polar Vortex, a “relative” warming trend develops this week but we still remain largely below average. By mid-week a cold front will bring the return of light snow to the area. Week’s end may turn breezy and finally near normal with potential Chinook winds developing. Let’s dig into the details.

While the snow was largely disappointing, it has opened the door for a bitter cold Sunday night

Snowfall amounts over the last few days were largely disappointing across the Denver Metro area, mostly coming in below expectations. We discuss what happened to all the snow, look ahead to the coldest temperatures which are still to come and discuss why Sunday night will actually be warmer than last night in some locations.

Double-digit below zero temperatures and several inches of snow are on the way

You think it was cold the last few days? Just wait and see what is coming! The coldest temperatures in nearly a decade have settled into the Front Range and it’s only going to get colder. We’re also tracking a rather unique light snowfall event that will spread accumulating snow across the area Saturday afternoon into Sunday. We discuss just how cold it will get and look at the snowfall amounts headed our way.

As of Monday morning, the Arctic airmass has spilled into the Front Range, but it won’t be staying for long! Boulder and Denver will be in and out of the frigid air much of the week ahead as the Arctic front wobbles back and forth. As such, some days will be more pleasant than others. While still somewhat uncertain, we are expecting the coldest air in years to inundate the region late in the week into the upcoming weekend alongside a chance of snow. Read on for our complete outlook of the upcoming week.

A strong storm system will move into Colorado during the day on Wednesday producing heavy snow in the Mountains. It will then kick eastward across the Denver Metro area Wednesday evening and night with a chance of rain changing to snow. We discuss the timing, amounts and provide our snowfall forecast map. Let’s take a look!

BoulderCAST Daily – Tue 02/02/21 | The Groundhog said six more weeks of winter but we have concerns about tomorrow’s snow

February 2, 2021 / Ben Castellani

⦁❶⦁ Despite Phil’s wintery prediction earlier this morning, our temperatures will soar into the 60’s today and tomorrow

⦁❷⦁ A quick-hitting trough will bring a chance of snow to the Front Range Wednesday night

⦁❸⦁ Even with decent lift and a potent jet core overhead, downslope looks to be too much to overcome northwest of Denver with this system

⦁❹⦁ Expected accumulations are minimal, but as always forecasting jet snow is tricky so stay tuned!
