The Front Range kicks off October with a stretch of warm, dry weather—perfect for leaf peeping and outdoor plans. After a brief chance of storms on Monday, highs climb into the 80s by midweek under mostly sunny skies. But this unseasonable warmth and sunshine won’t last forever: a late-week system could bring cooler temps and a renewed shot at rain or even Mountain snow. Read on for all the details.

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.
This week’s weather kicks off with a dramatic autumn shift—widespread rain, clouds, and a serious temperature drop that will bring snow to the High Country. A strong cold front and upper-level system will make Tuesday feel more like late October, with highs stuck in the lower 50s. But don’t worry, sunshine and warmth are on the horizon again. By midweek, we’ll rebound into the 60s and maybe even flirt with 80 by Friday. Curious about how much soaking rain we’ll get—or where that snow might land? Read on for all the details.
After a sunny and warm start to the week, the Front Range will trade blue skies for gray as a sluggish low-pressure system settles into northeast Colorado for several days. Rain chances build Tuesday and linger through Thursday, with well below normal temps and a few rounds of storms in the mix. But don’t expect a soaking: rainfall totals may vary widely, with the heaviest action likely landing northeast of Boulder and Denver towards Nebraska. The storm exits sometime Thursday leaving behind drier and warmer weather for the weekend.
Last week’s cold front didn’t just drop temperatures—it dragged in a wall of chemical-scented smoke that turned the Front Range skies hazy and acrid. The days ahead are shaping up to be much more pleasant with warmer temps, limited storm chances, and a break from the smoke (at least for now) under southwest flow. Read on for a full breakdown of this week’s weather, including when to expect the best shot at rain and whether any smoke may return in the extended.
September kicks off with a mellow vibe across the Front Range — warm days and mostly dry skies are expected. But don’t let the quiet start fool you. Between drifting wildfire smoke, sneaky cold fronts, and a potential tropical system by the weekend, there’s more nuance in our forecast this week than meets the eye. Read on as we break down what to expect day by day, plus what might shake things up by the weekend.
The unsettled weather pattern isn’t done with us just yet—and that’s good news for the rain-starved Front Range. While recent days have underdelivered in most areas, this week still holds promise for more moisture and continued cool weather. We break down when and where the best rain chances will line up this week, why optimism is cautious, and what to watch for as the pattern turns warmer and drier heading into Labor Day Weekend.
If you’ve been quietly rooting for a late-season monsoon comeback, it might be time to recalibrate. Boulder’s summer has been historically dry, and this week won’t offer much relief, at least initially. A persistent ridge of high pressure is set to lock in more heat and keep moisture at bay. But don’t tune out just yet—there’s a subtle pattern shift coming that could open the door to cooler temps and better storm chances by the weekend. Let’s take a closer look.
After a weekend of thunder and cooler air, the Front Range is catching its breath under clear skies and a brief spell of dry northwest flow. But don’t get too comfortable—heat, haze, and a few storm chances are already lining up for a return later this week. In this update, we break down the shifting ridge pattern, what it means for temperatures, and when wildfire smoke and monsoon moisture might make a comeback.
