A strong and slow-moving winter storm takes aim on Colorado late Monday night and through Tuesday. The system will bring snowfall, gusty winds, and colder temperatures to the Front Range. The greatest impacts will be felt east of the Denver Metro where blizzard conditions will exist over northeast Colorado. After a mild day to start our week on Monday, below normal temperatures in the 30s will persist through the rest of the week, with perhaps an intrusion of Arctic air in the extended outlook. Read on for the latest on potential snowfall amounts and a look at just how cold it will get this week.

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.
Persistent orographic Mountain snowfall is the main story this week with many ranges and ski resorts poised to see more than a foot of powder by midweek. Unfortunately the snow chances are much lower east of the Continental Divide with mostly dry weather expected in and around Denver, that is with one or two exceptions. Read on for all the details.
After a largely quiet and long Thanksgiving weekend, things get going quickly this week with widespread accumulating snow developing across the Front Range late Monday night into Tuesday alongside much colder conditions. Afterwards, the rest of the week will see moderating temperatures and generally dry/quiet weather, but we are tracking more snow in the Mountains on Friday. Read on for all the details.
It will be a rather quiet Thanksgiving week overall with dry conditions and temperatures remaining near or slightly below normal through Thursday. Beyond the holiday, a strong ridge will build into the area with warmer weather on the way for Black Friday. No precipitation is expected this week outside of light snow in the Mountains. Read on as we discuss the weather week ahead in the Front Range.
A cold northwest flow persists through the extended period which will favor well below normal temperatures all week long in the Front Range. We are watching a few shots of snow in this flow as well, with the best chance coming late in the week as upslope and potential jet-forced snow bands come together. Read on for more details and what weather we can expect this week.
This week’s weather across the Front Range will be almost a carbon copy of last week. That is, dry and mild conditions holding through Wednesday before much colder temperatures and snow arrive on Thursday. At this time, the snow potential appears minor at best as a huge winter storm system takes an unfavorable track directly over our area. The bigger story will be the cold temperatures it ushers in and just how long they stick around afterwards. Read on for all the details.
Warm temperatures will be the story through midweek in the 60s to near 70 degrees with a ridge of high pressure slowly sliding eastward, including picture-perfect conditions for Halloween evening festivities. However, the pattern shifts much colder and potentially snowy late Thursday into Friday. There remains considerable model uncertainty right now but there are definitely good chances for snow later in the week. Stay tuned and read on for more details.
Following the active day of weather in Colorado on Sunday — from thunderstorm to snow to blowing dust — things quiet down to begin the week. However, it won’t remain that way for too long! Our next storm system will approach mid-week bringing a chance of rain and possibly accumulating snow to the Denver Metro area. The Mountains will likely pick up another round of powder as well. Let’s take a look at the weather week ahead for the Front Range.
