Today, Colorado showed off its winter charm in the way only Colorado can—balancing frosty mornings, mild afternoons, and skies that made you pause to take in the season’s beauty. Here’s how the weather played out across the state on this chilly January day.
Denver: From Frost to Fresh
Denver woke up under a cold blanket with the thermometer reading 27°F (-2.8°C), but by the afternoon, the sun managed to nudge temperatures up to a more comfortable 46°F (7.8°C). The partly cloudy skies gave the city a pleasant mix of winter chill and golden light, making it perfect for a quick stroll in the park or a warm drink on the patio. With no snow or rain, it was an easy-going day for everyone out and about.
Colorado Springs: Clear and Crisp
Colorado Springs started colder, with early morning temperatures hitting 18°F (-8°C). But as the sun climbed higher, the city warmed up to 46°F (8°C). The clear skies gave way to stunning views of the snow-dusted Pikes Peak, a sight that never gets old. It was the kind of winter day where you might feel like bundling up and heading outside just to take in the fresh mountain air.
Aurora: Quiet and Overcast
Aurora played it cool today, with temperatures staying between 24°F (-4.4°C) and 29°F (-1.7°C). The skies were overcast, and while there wasn’t any sunshine to brighten the day, there was also no snow or rain to complicate it. A good day for a slow morning with coffee or catching up on indoor activities.
Fort Collins: Winter’s Sunny Side
Fort Collins got a little taste of sunshine today, with temperatures starting at a brisk 19°F (-7.2°C) but climbing to a surprising 49°F (9.4°C). The mostly clear skies were a treat for anyone who wanted to get outside, whether for a jog along the river or just a moment to soak in the crisp winter light.
