What beautiful comma cloud structure our departing low pressure has! Look at all the snow left behind across NM and CO this morning!

Two beautiful cyclones visible from space on this Friday: one cold-core (our Colorado snowstorm) and one warm-core (Hurricane Rafael). Ironically, they both are feeding off water from the Gulf of Mexico

Friday 2:30PM Update: The dreaded dry slot brought a lull in the snow to most of the area this afternoon. This has now pushed off to the west. The best upslope flow, Gulf moisture, & lift will be present across the area over the next 12 hours. Expect widespread moderate to heavy snow to ramp in the next hour or two, with rates of 1-2" per hour at times. Travel will be deteriorating rapidly this evening. Leave work early if possible.

Current conditions: Light snow falling, 34°F, 2.0" of snow so far.

☃️THURSDAY PM WINTER STORM UPDATE⚠️

The never-ending winter storm returns Friday with heavy snow dumping on the Front Range again, but temperatures will be a problem for some…

After already delivering a thick blanket of snowfall earlier in the week, the very same storm system is set to boomerang back north and slam eastern Colorado once again with widespread precipitation Friday into Saturday. With temperatures not as cold as last time, the storm’s impact will vary across the region, with plenty of heavy snow to go around, but also unfortunately with chilly rain spoiling the party a bit for northern cities.

We talk timing, snow amounts, where it will rain vs. snow, and travel impacts --> https://bouldercast.com/thursday-pm-update-the-never-ending-winter-storm-returns-friday-with-heavy-snow-dumping-on-the-front-range-again-but-temperatures-will-be-a-problem-for-some/

This was the coldest morning of the season in many areas. We got down to 22°F at our station. This should fully end the growing season across all of northeast Colorado. There were a few straggling spots that had yet to see a hard freeze. Not anymore!

*Yes, the recent snow will have insulated the ground cover plants a bit, but let's not get technical.

💥 BIG snow totals across the Front Range for the 2nd of four snow events this week!

Totals up to 20" occured in the Foothills, w/ up to 12" in parts of the southern Denver area. 2-8" fell in eastern Boulder County.

Officially, Boulder received 7.6" of snow and Denver (DIA) got 6.2".

Here's hoping the #3 and 4 snow events are better forecast to end the week... COWX

WEDNESDAY 3:30 PM UPDATE: After snowing for ~24hrs straight, we're finally seeing signs that this wave is on the way out of the Metro area (for now). Snow will continue to decline in intensity/coverage this evening, lingering longest west and south. More snow is expected tomorrow & Friday though!

06/11/2024

📏 Official snow totals so far through this morning:

Boulder: 5.4"
Denver (DIA): 4.0", First snow of season

An additional dusting to 4" is expected through today into tonight, highest south of Denver.

Sunday 7:15PM: Light to moderate rain is now engulfing much of the area (moderate snow in the Foothills). We're at 39°F in #Boulder with rain as temperatures continue to cool. May see some flakes mixing in at times, but we're still several hours away from any change over #COWX

Another stunning fall weekend... perhaps the last one for a while. Enjoy this time lapse of a Chinook arch cloud over Boulder. Happy Sunday! #cowx

😍 Beautiful gravity wave cloud structure stretching across much of northern Colorado this morning! #COWX

Quick shot of rain showers moving through most of the Denver area now. It'll be done pretty quick with sunshine and gusty winds on tap for the rest of our Monday!

430 PM Friday Update: Light rain is pushing into the Denver Metro area now. Sadly this short burst of rain (high Foothills snow) this evening may be the best we see this weekend. Models pretty much took the entire storm system south of us over the last 24 hours. Not hopeful to see too much precipitation north of Interstate 70 but it will definitely be chilly and gloomy. Hot cocoa weather indeed! ☕

Well, another 82-degree October day is in the books. A DRY cold front moves through tonight with temperatures closer to 70 for Tuesday. Plus there'll be some smoke behind this front that sticks around through Tuesday #COWX

There are THREE weather obstacles to seeing the aurora tonight in Colorado. Here's our recommendation for viewing! 1) Smoke: It's thickest to the east across the Eastern Plains. Don't go out there for viewing, though aurora can be seen through moderate smoke. 2) Cumulus clouds bubbling up over the terrain. These will fizzle out around or just after sunset. Don't be afraid to head up into the Mountains to get away from the light pollution. 3) Incoming mid-level clouds from the west. These should arrive to the Denver area between 9PM and midnight, with viewing thereafter becoming more challenging regionwide. Considering all these factors, we recommend viewing between 8-11PM in a dark spot between Denver, Cheyenne, and Fort Morgan, or anywhere up in the Mountains with a good view of the (northern) sky. Good luck everyone and enjoy the show. Don't let us down Sun! #COwx #Aurora #Denver #Boulder #Colorado

The smoke is back... Ugh! It should be with us the rest of Wednesday, but clears out quickly Wednesday night.
