These posts contain some discussion of the white stuff, whether it be mountain snow pack or a Front Range snowstorm.
Prolific snow and rain through the spring and early summer has painted an exceedingly green picture across eastern Colorado this year. Grasslands and meadows that are typically an ugly shade of brown by now are tinted in a vibrant emerald hue. As a result, there has barely been a single wildfire across the state this summer. We take a look to see just how extraordinary the amount and consistency of the precipitation in Boulder has been in 2015.

It is clear Mother Nature wants to make this year’s Mother’s Day weekend one to remember. From flooding rains, to severe storms, and snow, this weekend will have it all! With the upper-level low about to enter Colorado, the picture the models are painting is now coming into focus. Read on to find out the impacts for your area.
Mother Nature bringing snow for Mother’s Day
Soggy conditions have lingered across the Front Range for more than a week now, bringing measurable precipitation to most of Boulder County each day in May. This trend will continue through the weekend, as we track a developing surface low that will bring the possibility of accumulating snow on the Plains Saturday night into Mother’s Day.
The first full week of May looks to be rather unsettled, as a series of upper-level low pressure systems advance through Colorado. The first pushes in from the southwest on Tue/Wed, while a more potent storm system comes in from the west, affecting the forecast for the latter half of the week, including the University of Colorado’s Commencement.
