DENVER — Denver snow totals were expected to range from between 1 and 3 inches in spots across the metro with Tuesday’s fast-moving snow storm. Heavy bands of snow triggered a snow squall warning during the commute hours across a large portion of the Denver metro area.
The snow quickly moved out of the metro area and temperatures rebounded into the upper 30s Tuesday afternoon while winter storm warnings remained in effect for Colorado’s northern and central mountain communities.
Breckenridge Ski Resort said with the 8 inches of snow from the storm, the mountain hit over 200 inches for the season.
Here’s a look at early Denver metro and Colorado snowfall reports over the past 24 hours provided by both the National Weather Service (NWS) in Boulder and the Community Collaborative Rain, Hail and Snow Network (CoCoRaHS).
