This week will begin and end rather mild, but sandwiched in between will be the return of bitter cold temperatures and widespread snowfall. Though models have trended further south with the midweek snowstorm, everyone should pick up some of the white stuff. Let’s take a look at the roller-coaster of weather set to unfold this week in the Front Range.

There will be two chances of snow to contend with this week, but neither will be much of a concern for us. A few flurries or snow showers are possible on Monday as a weak wave passes through. Later on, a stronger trough approaches with a cold front late Wednesday into Thursday, where colder temperatures in the 30s and gusty winds will be the primary impacts. Current indications of this mid-week system favor the better chance of snow in the High Country, but there could be a brief burst of snowflakes across the lower elevations as well. Read on for more details.

A bitter cold Arctic front blasted into the Front Range over the weekend bringing a quick change in our weather including record cold sub-zero temperatures and persistent light snow. The Arctic airmass remains entrenched for our Monday with more snow in the forecast, but things turn quiet and sunny rather quickly in the days to follow. Temperatures will slowly moderate the rest of the week so keep those shorts and t-shirts handy — we should get back near 50 degrees by the end of the week!

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. The chance of snow will returns Tuesday into early Thursday as northerly mid-level flow sends ripples of energy to combine with weak surface upslope. Temperatures may finally get out of the 30s by week’s end, but just barely!

A major winter storm set to impact the Front Range Tuesday night through Wednesday. The heaviest snowfall will likely be focused east of Interstate 25 where up to 10″ could fall, with lesser amounts in Boulder and the Foothills. Another chance of light snow on Friday will round out a rather cold overall week for the Denver Metro area. Read on for our complete outlook of the week ahead, including our preliminary snowfall forecast map for the midweek snowstorm.

Following a weekend of quiet weather, the week ahead will continue that trend of near normal temperatures under downslope flow — at least for a few more days. The Mountains will see two waves of snowfall Monday through Wednesday with more than a foot expected in some ranges and ski resorts. As for the Plains, a midweek system will produce a period of light snowfall as well, but only with low-end accumulations expected alongside cooler temperatures.

Following a mild but technically “white” Christmas on Sunday, the week starts off quiet with a nice warm-up planned for Tuesday into the 60s. A southern-track system will bring heavy snow to the Mountains Tuesday night into Thursday, along with a good snow chance for the Metro area Wednesday night as well. Following a cold front, the week will conclude with seasonal temperatures.

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. However, the main story will be the bitter cold with wind chills dropping to dangerous levels for an extended period. This may be the coldest air to reach our area in decades. We discuss the timing of the powerful front, just how cold it will get and give our early thoughts on potential snowfall accumulations.
