With a bulk of this winter’s snowfall now behind us, we’d like to take a moment to review the outcomes of our snowfall forecasts. 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.

As such, confidence is increasing and we’re here to outline what we know so far and what to expect to end the weekend.
