Ridging over the Pacific Northwest extends into portions of Colorado today. We are also seeing a weak low pressure over Baja California. Our resulting flow, however, is continued west-northwesterly, promoting another day of mild temperatures. After highs yesterday in the low to mid 50s, we should see our highs jump about 3-5 degrees into the upper 50s for most of …

Northwest flow continues across the region today but will be starting to weaken as ridging works into the area from the west. GOES-East shows a few wispy clouds developing in the northwest flow, mainly in Wyoming and north, but not much activity is making it into Colorado except for a few wave clouds. High temperatures warmed above expectation into the …

Check out the total cloud cover forecast animation below which runs through midnight tonight. Skies will be partly cloudy with light winds this morning in to afternoon. We should see temperatures creep …

Chilly northwest flow will continue across the area today as Colorado rests in between a downstream deep trough in the Great Lakes and a developing ridge along the West Coast. Mid-level temperatures moderate several degrees which should allow for a jump in our high temperatures of about 10°F compared to our cold Thanksgiving yesterday. Highs will reach the middle 40s, …

Today, it's another warm one in the low to middle 60s. A large trough off the northwest coast is bringing lots of cold air into the northwestern US. A cold …
