Weather played an important role in the 1912 disaster of the sinking of the RMS Titanic, and it likely played a direct role in another disaster that took place 25 years later – at least that is the prevailing belief. On May 6th, 1937, while the German passenger airship LZ 129 Hindenburg was attempting to land at the Lakehurst Naval Air Station in New Jersey, a flame appeared on the outer cover of the rear of the ship. Within 34 seconds, the entire airship was consumed by fire and the golden age of airship travel was over.

A major snow event continues…
Much colder air moved into the area on Tuesday, and a significant snowstorm will bring as much as 6-10 inches of heavy, wet snow to the Denver metro region with even higher amounts near the foothills. Travel will be tricky; especially during the morning hours with temperatures hovering near the freezing mark in many areas. As is typical this time of year, the unusual cold will give way to milder conditions by week’s end.

A cold front approaches the region today and it will bring us some beneficial rainfall with a shower threat from later this morning on through the evening hours. The front stalls out on Thursday and low pressure will form along the boundary zone; however, the best chance for showers will be just to our south and east. High pressure takes back control of the weather to close out the work week on Friday and then the next disturbance can produce some shower activity around here on Saturday and yet another system on Sunday night and Monday.

Becoming quite breezy and warm today in the Mid-Atlantic region on the backside of a high pressure system which is located to the east of here and afternoon temperatures should reach the lower 80’s. A cold front will approach the area at mid-week and low pressure will then form along the slow-moving frontal boundary zone on Thursday. As a result, occasional showers are likely here tomorrow and tomorrow night - maybe a thunderstorm as well - and there can be a few lingering showers on Thursday. High pressure takes back control of the weather to close out the work week on Friday and then a weak disturbance can produce some shower activity here at the beginning of the upcoming weekend.
