Pueblo, Colorado – Snow is returning across southern Colorado Friday and is expected to continue through Sunday, with travel impacts likely in the mountains and accumulating snow spreading to the plains.
According to the National Weather Service in Pueblo, snow is ongoing in the high country Friday morning, where periods of heavy, wind-driven snow could significantly impact travel through the weekend. Mountain areas are expected to see the highest totals, with hazardous conditions possible on passes and higher-elevation roadways.
Forecasters say snow chances will increase across the plains later Friday morning and afternoon, with accumulating snow becoming more likely Friday night into Saturday. Lighter, “fluffier” snow is expected for valleys and plains, while heavier snowfall persists along the mountains.
The National Weather Service notes that snow chances continue through Sunday, with cold temperatures accompanying the system. Gusty winds in mountain areas may lead to reduced visibility and drifting snow, increasing the risk for difficult travel conditions.
Winter weather highlights remain in effect across parts of southern Colorado, including Winter Storm Warnings and Advisories in the mountains. Drivers are urged to check road conditions before traveling and to use extra caution if travel is necessary.
Commuters and travelers should prepare for changing conditions, especially during overnight and early morning hours when roads may become snow-covered and slick.
Additional updates are expected as the system continues to move through the region.
