DENVER (CBS4) –
Heavy rain started falling in Denver by mid afternoon, and quickly changed over to heavy snow by 4:00 pm. Accumulation will be less than Monday night, but we may still see 1 to 3 inches of wet, heavy snow! The foothills could see a bit more, with the mountains looking at 2 to 5 inches of snow.
Some areas could see much more snow. A Winter Weather Advisory is in place for our northwest mountains, where 4 to 8 inches of snow is possible.
A few snow showers may linger into Thursday morning, mainly in the foothills and to the east. After that, back to sunshine. We’ll be warm and windy on Friday.
The Easter weekend looks mainly dry at this time with near normal temperatures in the upper 50s and lower 60s. A few isolated showers are possible Saturday night.
