Denver weather: Record-setting heat wave this weekend could be followed by snow Tuesday

A dramatic weather change is setting up for Denver and northern Colorado as a record-setting heat wave is about to be sucker-punched by a massive blast of cold from Canada. Denver may see some snow on Tuesday, after a 90-degree high temperature Monday.

“This is not usual,” said Evan Direnzo, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Boulder. “It will be a pretty strange thing.”

2. I grew up in Denver.. Some wild changeable weather.

12. +1. Same here and a big ol' roger that.

Ride motorcycle to work, 70 degree early afternoon, 50 by 3, 30 and snowing by quitting time with a few inches on the ground then copping a ride home from a co-worker.

Or, the reverse with a storm blowing in one day, dropping a foot and the next day getting up to 60.

The dad term, "if you don't like the weather, hang around for ten minutes, it'll change" term certainly applies there.

Interesting description of your weather experiences,, yonder.. TY!

I love Denver memories

Set all sorts of records.

Colorado now has the most extreme temperatures in the US.

14. Wow! & it's 82 degrees where I am on Kauai.

7. Back into the 80s by Saturday 9/12, and staying there for the next 7 days.

8. It happens... The old adage: "don't like the weather? just wait a minute"... really applies here

9. Probably the same weather system, but here in Santa Fe

we're predicted to dip just below freezing on Tuesday, and I understand the Raton Pass, which is where I25 crosses from New Mexico into Colorado, may get snow.

Hooray for weather!

[Disaffected]

10. Yup, coming through Alberta tomorrow

and headed south. We will pass it on as soon as we are finished with it!

Actually not sorry to see it - too damn hot and dry here.

[Crunchy Frog]

11. Aww. I miss Colorado.

I can remember it being in the 90's one day and snowing the next. Many years ago in Boulder.

[Cha]

15. Yeah, I miss Colorado, too! I remember driving

up to Boulder for an appointment & it was like a White Out Swiss Mountain Village when I got there.

On the way back my battery died because it was so Cold.. I had first noticed other cars were dropping off on the side of the road.. & wondered what was going on?! Had to call my boss to come and help me. I was Fearless!

[Crunchy Frog]

16. Yes. Boulder is great and I miss it, but on balance...

I'd rather be where you are now, in Kaua'i.

[Cha]

17. Yeah, Kauai is better for

me now but I get nostalgic for all the places I've lived.

That would be San Diego, California, Ashville, North Carolina, Gainesville, Florida, Phoenix, Arizona, & Little Falls, New York.. not in that order.. and not even all the places. Just the Highlights. lol

18. Our tenderest perennials will go soft

I'm so hoping we wind up with it changing to at least above freezing. I worry about these creeping hummingbird trumpets because the hummingbirds are loving them right now. I just divided a lot of these and planted them all over the raised beds.
