Drought in Colorado has been worsening in recent weeks thanks to mostly dry weather this April. This past week has been particularly bad for drought.
Statewide data collected on April 19th and released by officials on April 21st showed 87% of Colorado was experiencing drought, but only 33% of the state had at least severe drought.
A closer view of the Front Range shows most of Denver’s northern suburbs like Broomfield, Thornton, Northglenn, Brighton, and Erie all have severe drought. Most of Northern Colorado including Fort Collins, Loveland, and Greeley is also now classified as having severe drought. There was some very limited moisture in the Denver metro area on Wednesday but not much. Thursday is expected to stay dry all day.
