An additional 2 inches was expected to fall around Fort Morgan, causing icy road conditions.

Interstate 25 northbound from Wellington to the Wyoming state line was previously closed, but has since reopened.

However, Interstate 70 westbound was closed at Georgetown because of multiple spinoffs, CDOT says. It was reopened just before 12:30 p.m.

The weather service's winter weather advisory is in effect until noon Sunday.

FORECAST: Snow Ends Today, Cold Sticks Around

Heavy snow is expected to fall in the mountains until Monday morning. That includes up to 12 inches forecast to fall on Pikes Peak.
