Denver, Colorado – A warmer-than-normal February pattern is expected to take hold across Colorado through late week, easing winter’s grip and limiting opportunities for widespread snowfall. While snow season is far from over, the overall setup favors quieter conditions across much of the state, especially east of the mountains.
According to the National Weather Service Climate Prediction Center, the 6–10 day outlook from February 10–14 favors above-normal temperatures across most of Colorado, with precipitation probabilities near normal. That combination points to a lower risk of significant snow events, particularly along the Front Range and eastern plains.
In the Denver metro area, Colorado Springs, and Fort Collins, daytime highs are expected to climb above seasonal averages, while overnight lows remain milder compared to recent cold stretches. Any precipitation that develops would likely be light, with rain possible during the day and only brief snow chances during overnight or early morning hours. Travel along major corridors including I-25, I-70 east of the foothills, and I-76 is expected to see fewer winter-related disruptions.
Mountain areas will continue to see occasional snow, especially along the Continental Divide and higher elevations, but prolonged or high-impact storms are not favored under the current pattern. Drivers should still be prepared for changing conditions on mountain passes, including I-70 through the Eisenhower Tunnel.
This warmer-than-normal, low-impact pattern is expected to persist through late week, though forecasters note conditions could shift if colder air returns to the Rockies. Additional updates or advisories may be issued if snow chances increase.
