Earth. It’s really cool, but it’s warming up faster now than it may have ever warmed before. Unless the buzz from last week’s East Coast blizzard has turned you into a climate change denier, you are likely already on-board with this sentiment. With 2017 now behind us, we take a look back at temperatures throughout the year for the globe, Colorado, and Boulder.
We discuss the forecast for snow on Thursday and how the weather pattern is shaping up heading into the holiday season.
The month of November wrapped up as the second warmest on record in Boulder. During the month, we had ten 70+ degree days, but only one with a high temperature below 40 degrees. The remarkable warmth of late will NOT continue for the week ahead, unfortunately. Continue reading as we detail the forecast for the next seven days.
The high temperature today in Boulder was more than 20 degrees above average. We review where this falls historically and discuss the weather for the upcoming weekend, including the potential for snow in the extended forecast.
It now appears we may be headed into our second consecutive La Niña winter. We discuss the forecast, remind you what La Niña actually is, and explain potential impacts on Colorado for this winter.
