Another storm moves into the mountains Friday afternoon prompting Winter Storm Warnings for the Park and Elkhead mountains along with Rabbit Ears Pass where 8 to 16 inches are possible above 10,000 feet by Saturday morning. Winter Weather Advisories will go into effect mid-day Friday for the Front Range and central mountains. It looks like 5 to 10 inches of new snow will stack up by Saturday morning.
Temperatures warm back to the mid-50s on Saturday in the Denver metro, then to the low 60s Sunday!
