February 2026 ran exceptionally warm, dry, and almost snowless across the Front Range—another month that felt more like an early spring preview than the heart of winter. Warm spells were frequent, with multiple days soaring into the 60s and even low 70s, while true winter cold was only brief and muted. February was a month defined by sunshine, downslope winds, fire danger, and a striking lack of moisture. It was officially Boulders 3rd warmest and 9th driest February on record. Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during February and how it relates to climatology.
