In the wake of a cold and soggy weekend, the main weather-player for the week ahead in Colorado will be a slow-moving trough across the western United States.

From the early-season storm that flew completely under the radar, to the epic blizzards in late February and mid-March, it was a great year for powder across the Front Range! From the good, to the bad, to the downright ugly, we crunch the numbers to see how well our snowfall forecasts verified throughout the Denver Metro area across the entire winter season.
