A new storm system will swirl into Colorado tonight and Friday with heavy snow for the mountains and a few inches of snow for Denver and the eastern plains.

There are Winter Storm Warnings and Winter Weather Advisories in effect for most of western Colorado for the snow that will continue falling Friday through Saturday.
A few light rain/snow showers are possible Thursday night into Friday across the Front Range, but there is a better chance of snow and a bigger cool down Friday night and Saturday. It looks like our snowfall totals are still pretty variable, but we could see between 3-6 inches of snow on the Front Range.
Along with the snow it will turn colder with highs in the low 30s across the Denver metro area on Saturday. Skies will start to clear on Sunday as the storm quickly pushes east, but it will stay chilly with readings in the middle 30s.
Early next week will turn milder with mostly sunny skies and highs in the 40s Monday and Tuesday and in the 50s by Wednesday.
