Winter Storm Warnings and Winter Weather Advisories are in effect across Colorado and the Denver area as snow returns to the Rocky Mountains.
DENVER — A winter weather system will bring rain and snow back to Colorado on Thursday and Friday.
The system will bring light snow to Colorado’s Interstate 25 corridor Thursday night into Friday. Heavier snow is expected in the Front Range foothills and the mountains.
Winter Weather Advisories and Winter Storm Warnings are in effect across Colorado through Friday with several inches of snow and icy road conditions expected in the Denver metro area, Palmer Divide and foothills.
Rain and snow will begin the Denver area as early as Thursday morning, with the potential for some lightning on the eastern plains. Some snow mixed with rain is possible Thursday before steady snow moves in Thursday night and Friday morning. The Denver area is forecast to receive 1 to 4 inches of snow into Friday.
Snow will continue in the mountains through Thursday. Snowfall amounts will be heaviest in Colorado’s mountains and foothills where 6 to 18 inches of snow possible.
Temperatures will be in the upper 20s and low 30s for the majority of the snow event, so this’ll probably end up as a heavier, wetter type of snow.
There could be some impacts on the roads Thursday evening, but it looks like the Friday morning commute could be slick in the Denver metro area.
Snow should clear later Friday or early Saturday, and a mild weekend with highs in the 50s and 60s should help quickly melt away whatever snow does fall.
