Forecast Update: Weekend storm offers little in the way of precipitation, but could produce winds up to 100 MPH around Boulder

April 5, 2024 / BoulderCAST Team / 0 Comments

An exceptionally strong spring storm is approaching Colorado which will develop into a big ol’ blizzard in the coming days. However, unlike the last few storms which have been direct hits on the Front Range, this one will track further north leading to more wind than precipitation in our area. After a warm and gusty Friday with high fire danger, the incoming storm will bring colder temperatures and a brief chance of rain/snow showers on Saturday. The biggest impacts from this system, though, will come in the form of prolonged damaging downslope winds. We take a look at the large-scale atmospheric setup and discuss the potential snowfall amounts and which unlucky areas have a chance at wind gusts up to 100 MPH this weekend.

This Week in Colorado Weather: April 1, 2024

April 1, 2024 / Andy / 0 Comments

The week starts off on the chilly side with rain/snow showers for our Monday thanks to a passing area of low pressure. Snowfall amounts will be rather limited by marginal temperatures, with the best chance for a few inches of accumulation being in the Foothills. A trend toward above normal temperatures will take over by mid to late week as an omega blocking pattern sets up over the central United States. We are watching the potential for not only fire weather concerns late in the week but also a rain/snow chance for the weekend as another strong storm system moves in. Let’s take a look!
