After a mild and dry start to the week, Colorado has big changes ahead in the forecast before the weekend arrives.
DENVER — A warm and dry start to the week will end with snow and much colder temperatures in Colorado.

The Front Range and Denver area can expect several inches of snow by Saturday morning. Snow total predictions range from 1 to 4 inches in the Denver area. Up to one foot of snow could fall in Colorado’s high country.
Before the wind picks up Thursday, a strong ridge of high pressure will remain in control of Colorado’s weather, keeping the state mild and dry again on Wednesday.
