It technically may be fall but winter is making a comeback across Colorado! After a brief lull, the snowfall will make a quick return late tonight.
Snow showers will redevelop again early Friday and continue through early Saturday. Friday's round of snow will be quite a bit heavier and will likely bring a better chance of heavy snow to the eastern plains.
A Winter Storm Warning goes into effect 5am Friday for the Denver metro area and eastern plains continues through noon Saturday. Denver could be in for an additional 7 to 14 inches of snow with the southeastern suburbs tacking on another 8 to 15 inches. Areas near Limon, Hugo and Agate along I-70 could see 12 to 20 inches of additional snowfall.
Blowing and drifting snow could likely keep Interstate 70 shut down Friday and into Saturday morning because of impossible driving conditions.
A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for the Front Range mountains for about 3 to 8 inches of snow through midday Saturday. Slick, icy and snow-packed mountain passes will create tough traveling conditions!
Temperatures will remain well below normal through Saturday. We'll see highs in the 30s Friday, with low 40s on Saturday. Skies will start to clear out on Saturday afternoon and we'll see lots of melting starting Sunday!
