Denver, CO – Light mountain snow with potential travel impacts is expected across Colorado today, with the heaviest snowfall occurring this afternoon, according to the National Weather Service (NWS) in Denver/Boulder. High mountain passes may see slick travel conditions as snow accumulates.
Cloud cover will increase across the plains, but dry air near the surface should prevent precipitation from reaching lower elevations. Temperatures will remain near seasonal averages for the plains, with highs in the 50s, while mountain regions will experience well-below-normal temperatures, ranging from the 20s to 30s. The urban corridor, including Denver and Boulder, will see temperatures in the 40s to 50s with increasing cloud cover.
Travelers in the mountains should be prepared for winter driving conditions, especially in higher elevations where snow accumulation could impact roads. Drivers are advised to check road conditions before traveling and carry necessary winter gear.
