Metro Denver residents in some areas woke up to wet sidewalks, marking the first measurable moisture the area has received in 24 days. But outside of the foothills, snow still hasn’t arrived, tying 1934 for the second-latest first snowfall on record.
There was fog and a light mist at Denver International Airport, with the temperature at around 40 degrees, as of 6 a.m. There is a 50% chance of light showers in the area through around 10 a.m. before things dry up again. The skies should turn partly cloudy with a high of 49 degrees and a slight wind from the north at 3 to 5 miles per hour, according to a forecast from the National Weather Service in Boulder.
But still no snow. If there isn’t 0.1 inches of snow measured by the end of today, unlikely given where temperatures are at, then the next mark to reach will be Dec. 10, which represents the latest first snowfall ever measured locally. That record was set in 2021.
The next best chance for snow is expected on Thanksgiving morning, when temperatures will dip down into the mid-20s overnight. But the forecast calls for only a slight chance of snow and showers. The high on Thursday is forecast to reach 54 degrees. After that, Sunday, Nov. 30, offers a 50% chance of snow showers.
The weather shouldn’t interfere with the morning commute. But light snow is expected to continue through the I-70 corridor for those heading up into the mountains.
