Winter Weather Advisory for Denver just issued from 5a-8p for today, totals bumped up to 3-5” per NWS Boulder for the AM commute.

Earlier start time may be part of what’s at play here. Expect a slick AM commute.

Mountains will have steady snow tomorrow, likely heaviest tomorrow morning (with snow squall potential as well). Snow gradually ends in the mountains tomorrow night.

5-10"+ above 9,000'. Should be a powder day for most ski resorts tomorrow + Saturday.

First crack at Friday snow amounts. I still suspect it's a lower impact event snow for most of the Denver area, roads stay mainly wet with slushy spots. Sun angle + surface temps + warm ground.

Ski traffic could be a very rough go Friday afternoon.

Blue dots indicate Thursday, orange dots Friday, and red dots Saturday. The greatest concentration of records is forecast from the Gulf Coast and Southeast north through the Tennessee and Ohio Valleys into the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast.

With the change-up to a more spring-like pattern also comes significant warmups between severe weather threats. In fact, record-warm temperatures are anticipated in a broad area in the U.S. from the Plains to the East Coast over the next week. Visit weather.gov for the latest.

It looks like it's going to snow in Denver on Friday.

This is not a drill.

December 2025 through February 2026 was the 2nd warmest winter on record for the Contiguous U.S. according to Prism climate data. The widespread record to near record warmth in the west easily outweighed the cool temps in the east. πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

Meteorological winter is done. It was top 5. Maybe top 3 warmest when the numbers are finalized. You wouldn’t know it or even believe it if you live in the East.
We heard lots about the cold and snow in the East, but the West BAKED as the warmest winter on record… 1/
