KEY MESSAGES

- Drier and warmer through most of the week, with a pattern shift starting on Friday.

- Cooler and more active weather expected this weekend and into next week. Details remain uncertain.

SHORT TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/

Issued at 1243 AM MDT Wed Oct 28 2026

Weather will remain quiet across our region today. Temperatures will remain several degrees above normal, with highs in the 60s-70s over the plains, and in the high-50s for the valleys. Winds will be somewhat breezy and out of the west. Overall, a warm and quiet fall day.

LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/

Issued at 1243 AM MDT Wed Oct 28 2026

Calm and mild conditions will continue on Thursday, though temperatures will drop a few degrees thanks to a dry cold front passing through.

Starting on Friday, our next incoming source of moisture will be a deepening trough over the Pacific northwest. As we move into this weekend, southwest flow aloft will increase over the region, bringing in moist Pacific air and better forcing to western Colorado. Meanwhile, deterministic guidance suggests a shortwave passing south of our area during the day on Friday, which could potentially bring some rain to the far southeast plains as well. However, if the wave picks up in speed, most of the precipitation could miss us, falling in Kansas instead.

Either way, the deepening trough out west will likely bring accumulating snow to the mountains this weekend. Showers will start more isolated in nature, increasing in coverage later in the weekend and into early next week. Latest guidance shows the upper trough amplifying, with a secondary low potentially moving onshore from the southwest as the trough digs into the Four Corners. Details on the timing, strength, and path of the system still need to be refined in the data, but overall cooler and more active weather is currently expected for next week.
