Temperatures across the Front Range will remain unseasonably warm for much of the week ahead pushing into the 70s and 80s. Precipitation will once again be vacant from the forecast early this week with no major weather systems to speak of. However, that all changes as we head into Friday and the weekend as our team is tracking a strong storm system that is taking aim on Colorado. Rather large uncertainty still remains in the exact outcome for us, but we discuss the odds of seeing our first snow and/or much-needed rainfall.

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.
The Front Range will unfortunately see a continuation of unseasonably warm and bone dry weather this week. With a strong ridge of high pressure parked over the region, temperatures will remain summer-like in the lower 80s for the most part. While a couple of weak cold fronts may bring slight temperature drops, there will not be any precipitation. Wildfire smoke from neighboring states will intermittently affect our air quality. We also look ahead to a pattern shift next week which should bring welcomed changes. Read on for all the details.
This week’s weather will once again be excruciatingly quiet in the Front Range. It’ll be a roller-coaster ride in temperatures from the 70s to around 90 degrees, but no rain is in the forecast as high pressure ridging keeps things totally dry. Two dry cold fronts will pass through the area — one on Monday and another later in the week, but this won’t prevent us from nearing record heat on Wednesday. We also discuss the potential for tropical development in the days ahead and take a look at the devastating aftermath of Hurricane Helene in North Carolina.
The Front Range experienced its first significant rainfall in five months, with some areas receiving up to an inch of rain over the weekend. The start of the work week will be relatively cool. However, a strong ridge pattern known as an omega block will bring warm and dry conditions from Wednesday onwards, with temperatures rising into the 80s and potentially reaching record highs by Thursday. While there is no hope for any snow in our forecast yet, our 10th Annual First Snow Contest will open to entries later this week. Read on for all the details.
In this final week of summer, Front Range Colorado will experience a mix of weather conditions. We’re tracking two main chances for rain in the extended: a quick shot of severe thunderstorms Tuesday afternoon and then widespread upslope showers by Friday or Saturday as autumn weather arrives right on schedule. The week will stay warm with temperatures in the 80s, but cooler, unsettled weather is looming for the weekend. Read on for the latest details.
The second week of September will bring a prolonged period of unseasonable warmth to the Front Range along with minimal rainfall. The early to mid-week period will actually have slight chances for rain, but late-week will have much drier air and gusty winds leading to elevated fire danger. Temperatures will remain close to 90 degrees every single day in the extended, with some influx of wildfire smoke at times from the Pacific Northwest. Read on for all the details.
September is finally upon us — what a great time of the year this is in Colorado! Mother Nature will deliver rather varied weather this week in the Front Range. Hot temperatures and high pressure will give way to a Pacific trough by midweek. Clouds will be on the increase alongside the risk of severe thunderstorms for Wednesday, with even a touch of snow in our highest elevations. Things will clear out nicely for the upcoming weekend leading to gorgeous and seasonal late-summer conditions. Read on for all the details.
Recent monsoon rains have brought some improvement in the ongoing drought across our area. However, the weather this week in the Front Range will largely be focused around the passage of a couple dry cold fronts with minimal rainfall expected. Although temperatures will fluctuate from the upper 70s to the lower 90s at times, most of the week will hover near or slightly above normal. As we head into the upcoming holiday weekend, storm chances will increase somewhat as moisture-rich flow tries to re-exert itself over our area. All this and more in our latest weekly outlook!
