This Week in Colorado Weather: February 13, 2023

February 13, 2023 / Ben Castellani

This week will begin and end rather mild, but sandwiched in between will be the return of bitter cold temperatures and widespread snowfall. Though models have trended further south with the midweek snowstorm, everyone should pick up some of the white stuff. Let’s take a look at the roller-coaster of weather set to unfold this week in the Front Range.

This Week in Colorado Weather: February 6, 2023

There will be two chances of snow to contend with this week, but neither will be much of a concern for us. A few flurries or snow showers are possible on Monday as a weak wave passes through. Later on, a stronger trough approaches with a cold front late Wednesday into Thursday, where colder temperatures in the 30s and gusty winds will be the primary impacts. Current indications of this mid-week system favor the better chance of snow in the High Country, but there could be a brief burst of snowflakes across the lower elevations as well. Read on for more details.

January 2023 Graphical Weather Review: Staying cold, staying snowy

January 2023 was our third consecutive anomalously cold and wet month in the Front Range with drought significantly improving during this time as a result. The month closed out with a bitter cold Arctic outbreak solidifying this January as the coldest since 2007 — something that will be felt in everyone’s wallet when the heating bill arrives. Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during January and how it relates to climatology.

A bitter cold Arctic front blasted into the Front Range over the weekend bringing a quick change in our weather including record cold sub-zero temperatures and persistent light snow. The Arctic airmass remains entrenched for our Monday with more snow in the forecast, but things turn quiet and sunny rather quickly in the days to follow. Temperatures will slowly moderate the rest of the week so keep those shorts and t-shirts handy — we should get back near 50 degrees by the end of the week!

Unseasonably cold temperatures will be in place throughout the week ahead with little hope for any warmer weather in the near-term across Front Range Colorado. A southern-track storm system will bring light snow totals to the Front Range for our Monday. The chance of snow will returns Tuesday into early Thursday as northerly mid-level flow sends ripples of energy to combine with weak surface upslope. Temperatures may finally get out of the 30s by week’s end, but just barely!

There was a lot of complaining this week about the poor snow forecast, but it actually turned out pretty okay — not amazing, but definitely okay. Let’s take a quick look at the totals from across the area for what was a rather impressive winter storm by January standards. We also peek ahead to the cold and snowy stretch of weather to come.

Widespread heavy snow is on the way for the entire Front Range Tuesday evening into Wednesday afternoon. A few subtle changes in the forecast have led to us increasing snowfall amounts a tad across the region.
