After a remarkable 66 degree drop in less than two days, Denver and the Front Range could set a record for the coldest February 22 on record.

– The eastern half of Colorado is experiencing weather whiplash this week after temperatures climbed into the 60s and 70s on Sunday and fell below zero early Tuesday morning. Denver’s official weather station recorded a 66 degree drop in 39 hours which tied last place on the list of largest 2-day temperature swings since 1872.

It was even colder on the Eastern Plains Tuesday morning with -6 degrees in Akron for example. And neighborhoods in southeast Wyoming experienced some of the coldest weather in the county. At one point Laramie was -18 degrees. If Denver stays below 13 degrees on Tuesday, the city will break the record for the “coldest maximum” temperature ever recorded on February 22. In other words, it’s likely Denver has never stayed so cold on the date.

The most likely time for additional accumulating snow in Denver will be during the Tuesday evening commute. Some areas along the urban corridor could see 1 inch between 4pm-10pm Tuesday. Then more snow is possible on Wednesday and Wednesday night but any additional accumulation should be minor.
