We wish there was better news, but the atmospheric pattern remains largely unchanged for the upcoming week. Thus, a chilly and unsettled stretch lies ahead. Read on for our complete forecast, which does include exactly ONE nice day.
Category: This Week in Colorado Weather (Page 51 of 71)
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 first week of October will be busy as a series of systems trek through the state from the southwest. The first will be the remnants of Hurricane Rosa. The second will be a quick-moving cut-off system. These will lead to the chance of showers and a few thundershowers through the week. We’re also tracking unsettled weather for the weekend with both rain and snow for the state of Colorado.
Cooler weather returns to the state starting tomorrow, followed by a gradual warming trend by week’s end. We detail the week ahead and the return of wildfire smoke. Read on for more details.
More 90’s are in the forecast to begin the week, but the longest heat wave of 2018 comes to an end for the Front Range by mid-week.
Weather in Colorado will be calm but hot for the last full-week of summer. Many areas will be flirting with record heat multiple times in the coming days. Elsewhere, the Carolinas are preparing for major Hurricane Florence which is likely to make landfall later this week.
A persistent trough of low pressure across the southwestern United States will keep the area cooler than normal through the week alongside the chance of scattered storms each day. However, the weekend looks warmer and certainly drier. We also briefly touch on the tropics across the Atlantic with two potential hurricanes in play.
Monsoon moisture is making its annual retreat back into northwestern Mexico. When this happens, we look to the mid-latitude storm track to begin providing “weather” to Colorado again through the autumn season. Unfortunately, the storm track remains well to our north right now, so prepare for a generally quiet week ahead.
What a wonderfully cool day we had on Sunday. Cooler weather continues early in the week, along with the increase in monsoonal moisture as the week progresses. Warmth and drier conditions take hold later in the week setting the stage for what looks to be a great weekend. We also detail the wildfire smoke situation and provide an outlook on when the smoke may clear out.
