As a result, drought has returned to the area, including both Boulder and Denver. June also landed as one of the hottest on record for many Colorado cities. Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during June and how it relates to climatology.

2024 began very soggy across the Front Range, but the month of May did a complete one-eighty concluding as Boulder’s driest in 50 years and 2nd driest since record-keeping began in the late 1800s. Other notable weather events during the month include the once-in-a-lifetime northern lights display visible across almost the entire United States and also what is likely to be yet another “billion-dollar hailstorm” which slammed parts of the Denver Metro area on May 30th. Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during May and how it relates to climatology.
Despite having a two-week-long dry stretch thrown into the mix, the month of April concluded wetter than normal for most of the Front Range. However, much of this moisture came from a soaking rainstorm (with a little snow) near the end of the month. Nonetheless, 2024 has begun as one of the all-time wettest in Boulder. We also endured an intense downslope windstorm near the beginning of April, but who could forget that? Xcel Energy customers sure wouldn’t! Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during April and how it relates to climatology.
The month of March was fairly dry and chilly most of the time, but we can’t forget the historic El Niño snowstorm which slammed the entire Front Range around the middle of the month. Snow totals of 1 to 2 feet occurred in Boulder and Denver with up to 5 feet fell in the nearby Foothills. Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during March and how it relates to climatology.
The beginning of 2024 was completely opposite to the conclusion of 2023, with temperatures taking a sharp colder turn as multiple Arctic outbreaks slammed the Front Range. Warmer temperatures toward the end of the month saved January from being one of the all-time coldest here. There were also several light snow events during the month, but nothing substantial — not surprising as January is our driest month of the year after all. Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during January and how it relates to climatology.
December 2023 was yet another warm month in Boulder, the same fate which has befallen four out of the last five months. Despite the lack of appreciable snow events, precipitation ended just a hair above normal for the month since December is typically one of our driest months of the year. Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during December and how it relates to climatology.
November 2023 was yet another warm and dry month in Boulder with just one medium-sized snowfall event to speak of —- that occurred the day after Thanksgiving. Despite the relatively parched last few months, officially drought has not yet returned to the Front Range. Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during November and how it relates to climatology.
October 2023 was an overall warm and very dry month in Boulder, but the days leading up to Halloween turned markedly colder with our first snowfall of the season arriving just a tad later than usual, and it was a sizable one for many! Despite the dry last few months, officially drought has not yet returned to the Front Range. Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during October and how it relates to climatology.
