Unseasonably cold temperatures will be in place throughout the week ahead with little hope for any warmer weather in the near-term across Front Range Colorado. A southern-track storm system will bring light snow totals to the Front Range for our Monday.

A doozy of a forecast will unfold this week as extremely cold Arctic air overtakes the Front Range late on Wednesday accompanied by a quick shot of fluffy snowfall.
