Answer 1 :
Snow can happen darn near anytime of the year (thought it is extremely rare in the summer) in Denver. But usually the snowiest months are February and March. Usually the first snowfall will happen late September to early October.
Answer 2 :
Actually Denver gets less snow than Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland and Pittsburgh. Denver is nice into October
Answer 3 :
Starts getting cold around Halloween. Evenings are chilly even now in the dead of July. Last week we were in the 60's and 50's at night, but now 90's in the day. There will be cold nights from October - mid May. Days are nice often, even in winter. As long as the sun is shining, it's nice outside usually. It's not uncommon to have 40 degree temperature variations throughout the day -- especially during fall/spring.
Answer 4 :
When you think of Denver, you more than likely think skiing. Ski season runs from mid-November to mid-April. The city sees a rush of visitors this time of year. However, when spring appears, skiiers swap their skis for mountain bikes. Outdoor summer sports activities are a big draw as well. Since there is so much to see and do year-round in Denver, there is no season that is more busy than another. Anytime is a good time to visit this Colorado gem. Average Weather Colorado weather is famous for its wild fluctuations--during any given season and any given day. Average high and low temperatures for a month can differ by as much as 30 degrees. But such rapid changes also mean that most weather conditions are only temporary--snow melts as rapidly as it appears. And thanks to two constants, a low relative humidity and more than 300 days of sunshine per year (more than Miami Beach or San Diego), the Denver climate is rendered quite pleasant.
