The intensity and coverage of these showers will start to diminish once we get into the late afternoon on Sunday. Snow levels are currently around 9,000-10,000 feet, but with how heavy some of these showers are, that could be briefly lowered to 8,500 feet. 5-10" of snow accumulations will stay across the higher peaks. Winter weather advisories will go until noon on Sunday.
