Southeasterly upslope flow and cooling temperatures overnight have once again forced low clouds and patchy freezing mist upon the area, but for the most part this has been confined to Larimer and Weld Counties. Surface visibility observations early this morning show that the primary trouble spots are indeed up along the Wyoming Border region. There could be a few slightly …

Upslope and low-level moisture have intensified overnight across eastern Colorado with low clouds, fog and freezing drizzle/mist developing across much of the Front Range. GOES-East satellite shows that almost everywhere east of the Continental Divide is socked into the stratus deck this morning, up to around 9000 feet elevation or so (white shading below is beneath the upper-level clouds). Current …

Astrong 150-mph west-east oriented jet streak stretches from central California into Kansas today. The strong winds tied to the jet are from California into central Colorado. The flow is largely perpendicular to the mountain range, promoting strong downslope flow over the Plains east of the Divide. The storm system tied to the jet is over the northern Great Plains. Both …

Abackdoor cold front slid through earlier this morning from the north. The front is currently situated over Kansas and Texas. In response, the Front Range is in a east-southeast upslope flow. This along with increasing clouds later this afternoon, should keep temperatures on the lower side today relative to Friday in the low to middle 40s. Some gusty winds may …

The mid-level pattern shows a fast-moving shortwave tracking roughly west to east across the state this afternoon and evening. There is little in the way of low pressure development, but enough mid-level forcing and upslope to bring snowfall to the higher terrain. On the Plains, we'll see another day of highs in the upper 40s under partly sunny skies giving …

Yesterday's wet snow came and went without much of an issue as primary roadways generally stayed just wet. The developing snow was heavy in spots, but was slightly more sporadic than expected. Some portions of southern and eastern Denver didn't see any snow stick at all, while pretty much all of Boulder County and the northern Metro area saw light …
