Okay, so I wanted to get a handle on Denver’s weather in March, ’cause, you know, planning is key, especially with the unpredictable spring weather. So here’s how I went about it.
First, I just did a simple * in “denver weather march”.
I Got a bunch of results, but I needed something I could really dig into.I skimmed few websites.I found historical averages, temperature ranges, precipitation probabilities… you name it. Lots of numbers, but I needed a way to organize it all.
So, I opened up a spreadsheet. Yep, good old spreadsheet. I started making columns:
- Date (March 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.)
- Average High Temp
- Average Low Temp
- Record High
- Record Low
- Average Precipitation
- Chance of Snow
Then, I started plugging in the data I found from those websites. It took a while, honestly. Lots of switching between tabs, copying, and pasting. Some sites had daily data, others just had monthly averages, so I had to do a little bit of estimating in some cases.
I also took some time write some daily record from every websites I skimmed.
After I filled in all the numbers, I started looking for patterns. It was obvious that the temperature can swing wildly in March. Like, one day it could be 60 degrees, and the next it could be snowing. Crazy!
Summary
It’s clear that packing for a trip to Denver in March means being prepared for anything.I created kind of a graph so visual it * layers, a decent jacket, and maybe even some snow boots wouldn’t be a bad idea. It’s better to be overprepared than caught off guard, right?
The whole process was a bit tedious, yeah, but now I feel way more confident about what to expect. And hey, that spreadsheet is something I can refer back to year after year, just updating it with the latest forecasts when I plan another trip.
