So far this Memorial Day Weekend has brought a mix of welcomed rainfall and intense thunderstorms across the Front Range, with some areas seeing over two inches of rainfall and even hail. While the first half of Monday should be dry for holiday festivities, scattered showers and storms will develop in the afternoon with brief downpours, gusty winds, and lightning. The unsettled pattern continues throughout the week ahead, with Wednesday and Thursday offering the highest storm chances, fueled by lingering atmospheric energy. However, as we approach the weekend, a shift toward warmer and drier conditions is expected, with highs climbing into the lower 80s and fewer storms impacting the region.

These weekly forecast posts are published EVERY Monday morning and provide a general overview of the atmosphere and the weather conditions for the week ahead in Front Range Colorado. We give you a heads-up on the major short-term weather features and anything looming down the road.
Sunday’s storms brought a slew of severe weather to northeast Colorado, including a photogenic tornado east of Denver. This week will be relatively quiet, but there is still plenty to discuss. Monday will stay cool and showery, but drier and warmer weather is on-tap for the rest of the week. However, a weekend trough will threaten to shake things up again—could the Memorial Day Weekend forecast include stormy skies? Read on for all the details.
Get ready for a preview of summer! Near-record heat will kick off the week across the Front Range, with highs soaring towards the mid to upper 80s. These temperatures could tie or break existing records, making for a sizzling start to the week. But don’t worry—relief is already on the way! A mostly dry cold front will roll through around midweek, cooling things down to more seasonable levels. While a few stray showers might pop up later in the week, the better chance for wet weather arrives over the upcoming weekend.
Get ready for soaking rain across the lower elevations, with heavy wet snow in the higher terrain of the Front Range. A powerful spring storm will impact Colorado this week, allowing for a lengthy period of deep upslope infused with Gulf of Mexico moisture. The bulk of the storm’s energy will hit from Monday afternoon through early Wednesday, bringing a dramatic shift in weather conditions to the area. Thick clouds and precipitation will keep temperatures feeling brisk, but by the end of the week, high pressure will return, ushering in a more seasonal warmth. Just how much rain are we expecting this week? How deep will the snow pile up in the Foothills and Mountains? And how far down could the snow levels plunge at the storm’s peak? Read on as we break it all down in this week’s outlook.
Unsettled weather will stay the course this week across Colorado, with a lingering trough keeping rain chances alive early on. A stronger cold front arrives midweek, boosting precipitation chances and bringing a brief return of wintry weather to the higher terrain. Though the weekend ahead looks quite nice, a soggy pattern could be brewing next week. Read on for all the details.
While this week’s weather in the Front Range won’t be as flashy as last week’s snowstorm, there is still plenty to discuss! A gradual pattern shift through the week will see warm and dry conditions get replaced with cooler and wetter weather in time. There will also be some fire danger and severe storms this week across eastern Colorado. Read on for all the details.
After a round of light rain and snow overnight, quiet weather will ensue for the Front Range through midweek with limited chances for rainfall and temperatures trending upwards. However, our main focus is towards a soggy late-week storm system which will bring widespread rain and snow to the area. While still somewhat uncertain, several inches of spring snow are looking increasingly likely for us, even across the lower elevations. Read on for all the details.
Following a chilly and unsettled first week of April, this week will be much quieter across Colorado with generally warm and dry conditions favored throughout the entire week under the protection of high pressure. Temperatures will fluctuate a tad due to a pair of dry backdoor cold fronts, but otherwise this week will offer-up gorgeous spring weather. That theme will continue right into the upcoming weekend with the first 80-degree temperatures of the year likely. Read on for all the details.
