This week in Colorado weather: December 20, 2021

December 20, 2021 / Andy

Temperatures will remain well above average throughout the week as the Front Range remains under favorable downslope warming. Gusty winds may be possible at times given this setup but overall a pleasant week lies ahead. Heavy mountain snow is expected by the end of the week with a strong and moisture-rich storm system. Read on to find out if there are any snow chances in the works for the lower elevations as well.

BRACE FOR IMPACT: Our final thoughts as a brief snow squall & hurricane-force winds bear down on the Front Range!

Things are about to start rocking and rolling across the Front Range as a potent storm system rapidly races across Colorado early this morning. Here’s the latest update on the timing of everything, where the snow squall is headed, potential snow amounts, and the all-important wind speed outlook.

WARNING: A damaging wind event appears likely on Wednesday with gusts up to 100 MPH, plus maybe a brief snow squall

Batten down the hatches! A significant and potentially historic wind event is about to unfold across the Front Range on Wednesday with gusts reaching up to 100 MPH. A band of heavy snow will also race across the state during the morning hours creating dangerous travel, especially in the Mountains. Let’s review the setup, the timing of the snow and strongest winds, and the potential snow amounts and impacts across the area.

Well, Denver’s snowless streak finally came to an end as a dusting of frozen precipitation was reported at Denver International Airport this past Friday morning. Unfortunately, the week ahead will not continue the trend with a largely dry week expected. We are closely watching a quick-moving storm set to race across the area on Wednesday which could bring white-out conditions to the Mountains and very strong winds to the Denver Metro area. The meager chance of rain/snow with this mid-week system will offer little reprieve for the extreme drought which now encompasses the entire area.

A few bands of snow are impacting the area this morning

Expect a quick dusting to 1″ across the area, with up to 2″ in localized spots hit hardest by the band impacting central and southern Denver.

The chance of snow on Friday has waned, but here’s the latest

We hate to be the bearer of bad news, but someone sadly has to assume that role today. What looked like a somewhat good, though uncertain, chance of snow for us earlier in the week has transitioned to a situation where almost every weather model is now struggling to come up with much, if any, snow in the Denver Metro area tonight into Friday. Let’s take a look at what happened and how much snow is currently expected.

The week begins chilly after the dust storm-spawning cold front blew through on Sunday. Temperatures will be up and down through the week ahead, with several waves of Mountain snow expected. More notably, though, an interesting weather setup is developing late in the week that should bring a wave of light snow to the entire Denver Metro area.
