April weather forecast
Colorado, USA

April in Colorado is characterized by a continued shift towards milder weather, with the real essence of spring becoming more apparent. The Eastern Plains experience temperatures from 30°F (-1.1°C) to 50°F (10°C), making it noticeably warmer than the previous months. Still, late-season snowstorms can occur, especially in higher elevations.

Cities like Colorado Springs, situated near the mountains, might see a mix of rain and snow in April. The transitional nature of this month means that weather can fluctuate dramatically from day to day.

Snowfall becomes less common in the plains but can still be significant in the mountains. Winter sports enthusiasts often enjoy extended seasons in the high-altitude ski resorts, where fresh snow may still accumulate.

The Chinook winds, typical of winter months, become even less frequent, and the weather pattern starts to stabilize. Precipitation often takes the form of rain in lower regions, contributing to the blossoming of spring flora.

April's weather stands in contrast to the harsher conditions of winter and the fluctuating temperatures of March. It's a month where spring starts to assert itself firmly, yet winter's influence can still be felt, especially in the mountainous areas. The combination of warming temperatures and lingering snowfall makes April a unique and varied month in Colorado's climatic calendar.
