An extraordinary winter storm is taking aim on the northern Rockies this weekend. Fortunately (unfortunately?), the feet of snow in the forecast are not for Colorado. We take a look at this classic upslope event and also discuss the impacts that this historic system with massive breadth will have on our area.

Two strong Pacific storm systems are moving ashore this week but unfortunately will pass mainly north of Colorado. This will result in continued warm conditions with little opportunity for rainfall or Mountain snow as we conclude the summer season.

The next several days are going to be unseasonably cool and active across the Front Range. We discuss the outlook for large hail and tornadoes Friday afternoon, accumulating snow in the Mountains, the potential for flooding, and the gloomy weather sticking around for the weekend. Yes…all of that!

This week in weather: Late May snow and an overall unsettled week

May 20, 2019 / Andy

This week continues right where the weekend left off….unsettled and chilly. Significant snow is likely in the Mountains and Foothills Monday into Tuesday as a strong spring storm moves across Colorado, with light snow possible in the Denver Metro area as well. Drier weather returns towards the end of the week along with warmer temperatures.

Marginally severe storms possible Friday and the cooler weekend ahead

Several factors are coming together this afternoon for a fairly significant severe weather outbreak. Though the focus will be well northeast of the Front Range in Nebraska and South Dakota, storms that develop this afternoon and evening across the Metro area will have the potential to be strong and borderline severe, with hail and strong winds the main threats. We take a look at the forecast for a stormy Friday and the cooler weekend ahead.
