Our coldest stretch of this Arctic intrusion will be today through Monday. Our highs today will only top out in the upper teens to near 20 degrees. Lows tonight will be near zero and Monday's highs will struggle to get out of the single digits. But there is warmer air in store and we'll talk about that a bit later. …
Snow showers will continue into the afternoon and early evening hours across the Front Range. We continue to see upslope snow as a result of the passage of a strong Arctic cold front. Temperatures have plummeted into the lower teens to single digits earlier this morning. We won't warm up much today, perhaps only in the mid to upper teens …
Good morning, folks! Today will kick off a brief but welcomed warming trend in the Front Range as our lingering troughiness gets replaced by a ridge of high pressure building across the northern Rockies from the west. The ridge looks quite formidable today (left panel below), but as it translate eastward tonight into tomorrow, it will weaken considerably as it …

The incoming disturbance from Wyoming will usher in mainly just some cloud cover to the Front Range for the first half of our Tuesday, though we can't rule out a few snow flurries across the region, primarily in …
An Arctic high will settle across the region today and tonight. With plenty of cold air in place, our lows tonight will dip into the lower teens. If it wasn't for the katabatic winds from the nearby Foothills, some places would be in the single digits. As for our highs this afternoon, we'll see partly cloudy skies in the middle …
Amid-level shortwave trough and associated axis will track through the region this afternoon and evening. While most of the flow will be in the form of a west to northwesterly downslope flow, some convergence along a surface cold front could bring a short-lived band of snow across the region. After highs in the upper 30s this afternoon, it will turn …
The week ends with somewhat more mild temperatures. However, highs will still be below normal. Chinook winds out of the west and northwest will favor downslope flow that will warm and dry the Plains east of the Foothills. We should see highs in the upper 30s to near the low 40s over the Denver Metro area. Some gusts this afternoon …
