Premium BoulderCAST Daily – Thu 02/01/24 | Final 60-degree day before things turn sloppy this weekend, plus our preliminary snowfall forecast map

The few remaining patches of clouds overnight have mostly cleared out this morning across the Front Range, as seen from the current GOES-East infrared satellite animation below. The Pacific storm we've been eyeing all week is about to make its way into California with deep subtropical moisture already spreading ashore now. We have one more really nice day on tap …

Premium BoulderCAST Daily – Wed 01/31/24 | A warm end to January, the weekend rain/snow forecast continues to be a messy one

On this glorious last day of January, another outing of spring-like weather is expected across the Front Range as broad ridging sits across the West through the day. The primary ridge axis has now passed east of our area with southwest flow ensuing aloft. The greatest warm anomalies under this persistent ridge pattern have been well north of Colorado all …

Premium BoulderCAST Daily – Tue 01/30/24 | Warmth & sunshine continue, plus our initial thoughts on snow amounts for the weekend

Happy Tuesday,  everyone! We've got another warm and beautiful day lined up as a ridge of high pressure continues to dominate the weather across the western United States, with that generalization definitely including Colorado. The high pressure center is located almost squarely over the Four Corners point today with the Front Range under weak but (surprisingly) warm northerly flow aloft. …

This Week in Colorado Weather: January 29, 2024

We got our first taste of 60-degrees in the New Year on Sunday and those sixties will continue through much of the week ahead as high pressure dominates our weather. However, as you’ve probably heard already, a potent Pacific storm is looming in the extended with a slew of impacts expected across the Front Range during the upcoming weekend. Uncertainty is unsurprisingly quite high being six days out, but early indication does show a good chance for a significant accumulation of heavy wet snow in the Metro area following a period of rain. Read on as we discuss not only the beautifully warm and sunny weather this week, but also the cold and snowy stuff brewing for the weekend.

Premium This Weekend in Colorado Weather: Spotty rain/snow on Friday, but a triumphant return to 60-degree temperatures is not far off!

Another day, another push towards 50 degrees this afternoon! We'll start the day with plentiful sunshine, but clouds will increase substantially later on as the next storm system approaches. There's only really one feature of concern in the extended forecast for us --- the disturbance that came ashore in Oregon last night which will slide into northern New Mexico by …

This Week in Colorado Weather: January 22, 2024

This week in the Front Range will be rather quiet and dry with most of the weather systems passing to our south. High temperatures will largely hover in the 40s throughout the extended — a very seasonal stretch indeed! There is some indication for a late-week snow chance but that is currently shaping up to be very minor at best. Let’s take a look…

Premium This Weekend in Colorado Weather: An Arctic front arrives midday Thursday, a freezing Friday, and a warm/dry stretch begins this weekend

Today will be an interesting day of transition across the Front Range with very mild morning temperatures turning bitter cold again as an Arctic cold front sags southward across the Front Range. The surface temperature forecast animation below shows the front blasting south across eastern Colorado through the day into this evening. A closer look at the forecast for our …
