REST OF THE WEEK: Snow arrives late this evening and overnight, continuing all the way into tomorrow morning for most areas. Accumulations will likely be around 3-6″ for most areas by Monday morning. The snow will be very fluffy so it will have the potential to accumulate quickly. A brief break for some during the day on Monday and then another round of snow arrives. Snow chances will actually continue all the way into Tuesday for most. Highest potential for high accumulations looks to be along and south of hwy 50 for right now, where some heavier bands could set up. Accumulations could end up in the 6-12″ range for most areas along and west of I-25 when all is said and done later Tuesday. Areas like Monument Hill and Teller County are actually expected to be on the lower side of accumulations with these rounds of snow. Plan on needing extra time for commutes, especially Monday and Tuesday morning.
We’ll give both Monday and Tuesday a 2 on the “Storm Impact Scale” because we will see accumulating snow and impacts to travel each day. Aside from the snow, winds will be breezy and temperatures will be frigid, only in the 10’s. A touch milder for the rest of the week, but still well below average. The next snow potential will move in on Friday.
