We've kind of seen it all so far this winter and early meteorological spring in Colorado. A few busts, a few booms and a few in-betweens. This week, however, arriving right on time, could be a mid-March special... Any of you model geeks, us included, have seen some of the booming snowfall potential with the storm set to come through around Thursday, potentially lasting well into Friday, and in some instances... until Saturday! Now, not even 96 hours out from this storm we cannot confidently cal

First, a very Happy New Year to you all! It hasn't been the worst start to the winter along the front range, but we certainly haven't seen any storm define this winter thus far, and some locations have fallen well behind their seasonal norms for snowfall to date. That has a chance to change as several waves of low pressure look to speed across the region later this week and next weekend. One of our biggest missing factors so far has been the lack of true cold air. Model data seems like it wa

Have had a bit of a break from the action as of late and for most of the rest of this week should be quiet through Friday. However, deep within the recesses of the Weather5280 Slack Channel, four dudes have been eyeing a Front Range Christmas storm potential for days now. Now, there's definitely still a storm present on the models, BUT, the track and timing are still pretty uncertain. Those two factors will be critical in determining if this storm ends up being a travel-disrupting-biggest-stor

About a week and a half ago, we posted about a possible active end to October in our State of the Atmosphere post. Coming just in time, we have a blast of winter weather on the way this weekend. Now, we're not going full-blown bomb cyclone with this thing, but much colder air and some accumulating snowfall is all on the table. But first – let's get through some housekeeping We have a weak system is passing to our southeast Tuesday afternoon

The next snow event is unfolding in the mountains for the next several days, but some of that snow will make it over central and northern parts of Colorado Thursday to Friday (mainly Friday as it appears right now) with a higher impact near Fort Collins and Greeley versus Denver. The mountains will have significant snowfall for central and northern ranges through the weekend, over two feet possible which is great for the ski and water industries but will be rough on travelers and the backcountr

No doubt your Super Bowl hangover is made a bit tougher with a significant temperature drop, ice, and snow in parts of Northern Colorado by early Monday, with a growing impact during the day. Be careful this morning; ice is already an issue! Reports of freezing drizzle, sleet, and snow received by Monday morning match the forecast we published Sunday giving

Perhaps you have thought the same? Let's check that hypothesis and give some context to September's snowfall history for the Front Range. At the surface, this memory isn't all that wrong. Let's dig deeper. I'll begin by showing you the September snowfall tota
