The Mountains are finally beginning to actually accumulate snow! With an active weather pattern on tap for the week ahead, we’ll see this trend continue. For the lower elevations, we’re expecting downslope to greatly limit any chances of precipitation this week, but several surges of cold air will keep our temperatures quite chilly. Finally, we’re tracking a weak system for Friday that could bring some light snow to the lower elevations as well. Read on for our complete outlook of the upcoming week. Continue reading

We’ve had quite an unbelievable stretch of weather the past several weeks. However, the bad news is that there hasn’t been any rain in a long time. In fact, Boulder County is once again under a fire ban. We really could use rain or snow, but this week will unfortunately not bring any respite from the dry spell. This first half of the week will focus on a weak shortwave and mountain snow, with the latter week featuring warmer weather and a potential cold front. Read on for our full forecast.

Our recent warm stretch is more typical of mid-September than mid-October, but it’s really hard to complain. Under the influence of an expansive ridge of high pressure, temperatures have exceeded 80 degrees each of the last four days, with several close-calls for record highs in many Front Range cities. For the week ahead, we’ll see a brief cool down and spurts of Mountain snow, but revert to boring summer-like weather before the weekend.
