October 2025 was definitively warm and dry throughout the Front Range with the primary storm track remaining well north across Wyoming and Montana. The only real precipitation event during the month occurred on October 6th with some locations picking up more than one half inch of rain. Our first frost of the season occurred about two weeks later than normal, and to this day we’re still waiting for those magical first snowflakes across the lower elevations. Here’s a quick and colorful graphical recap of our weather during October and how it relates to climatology.
