Boulder's Climate

Despite Colorado's image as the snow capital of the country, Boulder, located at the edge of the mountains, enjoys a relatively mild climate for most days of the year.

The table below lists the average temperature for Boulder in Fahrenheit degrees:

Season	Avg. High Temp.	Avg. Low Temp
Summer	80's	50's
Fall	60's	30's
Winter	40's	20's
Spring	50's	30's

Colorado weather is generally unpredictable, so be prepared for sudden changes in the weather!

If you are arriving in August: Bring your warm weather clothes. If you have cold weather clothes, either bring them with you or have them sent later. If you come from a warm climate and don't have cold weather clothes, it is probably best to wait to buy them here rather than try to buy them before your arrival.

If you are arriving in January: Be prepared for cold weather. We have occasional snow, usually in small amounts of 2 - 3 inches, most of which melts and disappears within a few days. Once or twice a season, we may get a big snow storm.
