These posts contain some discussion of the white stuff, whether it be mountain snow pack or a Front Range snowstorm.
While Punxsutawney Phil and Flatiron Freddy both saw their shadows Sunday morning solidifying their predictions for six more weeks of winter, we’ll start off February with wildly above normal temperatures in the 60s to lower 70s here in the Front Range. However, we are watching an Arctic cold front that will peskily waver back and forth across northeast Colorado as the week progresses leading to fluctuating temperatures and plenty of uncertainty. The brunt of the cold air, though, likely will not plunge into our area until sometime next week alongside increasing chances for snowflakes.
A medium-impact winter storm is headed for eastern Colorado, bringing some snowfall and strong winds to parts of the Denver Metro area late Wednesday night into Thursday afternoon. Weather models show varying predictions, but the southern and southeast suburbs of Denver are favored most for up to a couple inches of snow, with higher totals possible along and east of the Palmer Divide. We discuss the rift in the model guidance that is leading to the uncertainty, as well as the latest timing and most likely outcome from this somewhat warmer southern-track winter storm.
After a definitively wet November in the Front Range, Mother Nature did a complete one-eighty with December landing one of the warmest and least snowy on record in many locations, topped off with our first rainy Christmas in 82 years! Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during December and how it relates to climatology.
2025 has been exceptionally cold and snowy in the Front Range so far, but is that finally about to change? This week we can expect several tranquil sunny days to begin but we are watching the threat for more snow as a low-pressure system approaches from California by Thursday.
January is typically our driest month of the year, but in 2025 it’s been anything but as another round of fluffy snow dumped on the Front Range Friday night into Saturday. We briefly review both the snow totals from this single storm and the seasonal ones.
We haven’t really seen much melting of the more than a foot of snow that fell last weekend in Boulder, but additional white stuff is indeed on the way this weekend! A slow-moving storm system will bring relatively light but long-lasting snow to the area Friday night into Saturday night, with a heavy focus on the northern Front Range this time (Boulder and Larimer Counties). Some locations could see upwards of a foot of snow as temperatures plummet back into the teens for Saturday. Let’s take a look!
The week starts off with light snow and bitter cold Arctic air entrenched across the Front Range, but it won’t last long as the frigid airmass exits to our east quickly on Tuesday. While the rest of the week won’t exactly be warm, there will be a general upward trend in our temperatures back into the realm of normalcy. Our next chance of snow in the pipeline could arrive during the upcoming weekend. Read on for more details.
