A potent but fast-moving winter storm is on track to arrive tonight, bringing accumulating snow, near-blizzard conditions, and much colder temperatures to Boulder County.

After near record warm conditions thus far this fall, things are finally starting to feel like winter. Yesterday saw temperatures dip into the low 20’s during the morning hours (the coldest so far). Brrr! We also had our first snow of the season last Wednesday night. Way to go Boulder! Were you awake between midnight and 3am to see a few wet flakes mixing in with the rain?

More than half of Boulder County is now under a complete fire ban. Will October offer up the soaking rain and mountain snow that we desperately need? Read on as we examine Boulder’s climatology and consider the current state of the atmosphere to give our outlook for the next month.
With El Niño now approaching record levels, we crunch the numbers to see what type of impact we could potentially see in Boulder as the we head through the autumn season. Spoiler: we think it involves an epic snow storm!
