Welcome to Seth's Weather

Daily Colorado weather forecasts and consulting

Great to see 0.25"-0.50" of rain for part of Den/Bou. Rain and snow reports below.

10/26/26 8:30am: Morning, its Monday but at least it rained! Stoked that I picked up 0.25" at my house in Westminster and parts of Denver picked > 0.50" of rain (which was a bit unexpected given the uncertain forecast, but I mentioned the rain last night).

Cloudy wet and cool over eastern CO this morning but the rain is done along the front-range, still raining over northeast CO as the low exits the state.

Also great to see some snow in the mountains. Many of the local ski areas picked up 1-4" of snow last night (as expected).

Below I show a map snippet of 24hr rain reports from CoCoRaHS along with 24hr observed rainfall from MRMS. And current snow-stake views for A-Basin and Copper.
