Here is a friendly reminder from your favorite Fort Collins roofing company, Fort Collins roofs might be dry right now but that might not last for long. It’s mid-May in Colorado, but that doesn’t mean it’s too late for a spring snow. If you are planning your Fort Collins graduation parties for either Thursday or Friday you may want to have some backup plans to move the party inside. As long as you have a roof your party will be covered.
Fort Collins forecast: Snow, really? Forecasters predict a chance of rain, thunderstorms and maybe even snow in Fort Collins this week. Ah, springtime in the Rockies.
After a clear, sunny weekend, cloud coverage will increase Tuesday and the Choice City could see showers and thunderstorms after noon and before 10 p.m., according to the National Weather Service.
The strongest chance of showers is on Wednesday night into Thursday.
Highs in the 70s will linger until Wednesday, when a cold front should push highs down the 60s. Thursday and Friday both have projected highs of 49 degrees.

Last week’s rains brought 0.32 inches of precipitation to the Fort Collins weather station at Colorado State University, which this month has received 0.43 inches of precipitation compared to an average amount of 1.02 inches.
The silver lining: Fort Collins has received enough moisture in recent weeks to escape drought status that had persisted since August. The city and most of Larimer County is now classified as “abnormally dry,” the precursor to drought, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor. Via coloradoan.com
