After a mild and dry end to March, we are in for some soggy changes as we kick off the month of April.
Expect some wet roads for the evening commute and a light rain/snow mix overnight. Little to no accumulation is expected on the plains.
Snow has moved into the mountains, and we'll continue to see it fall over the western half of the state overnight into Wednesday morning.
A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect through early Wednesday morning for the Front Range mountains for 4 to 10 inches of new snow. Look for 6 to 12 inches around Vail, Aspen, Snowmass and Crested Butte. The Park and Elkhead mountains could pick up 6 to 14 inches of snow by Wednesday morning. It'll be blustery too with gusts up to 60 mph, so blowing and drifting snow will make for a tough drive across mountain passes.
Skies will clear out on Wednesday but it will be a brief break in between storms. Daytime highs will be in the low 50s under partly sunny skies with a bit of a breeze.
Another storm moves into the state early Thursday as the Denver metro will see a rain/snow mix off and on that day with highs in the upper 30s to low 40s. The city could see a couple inches of slushy snow while the mountains get another blast of heavy snow!
And it looks like it's going to be a little chilly for the Rockies home opener, with highs in the 40s during the game. We'll also see a chance of a little rain and snow.
A stronger storm moves in Friday night bringing the potential for more snowfall accumulation near Denver by early Saturday morning. More details to come!
