A low pressure system is set to hit the Denver area late Sunday, bringing accumulating snow and chilly temperatures through Monday afternoon. Moderate snowfall is expected, especially in the higher terrain, which could significantly impact travel during the Monday morning commute. The Denver metro area is forecasted to receive 1-3 inches of snow, making for a slippery start to the week.
But that’s not all—another snowstorm could be on the horizon, arriving Wednesday or Thursday. While there’s uncertainty about its intensity, there’s a slight chance (<20%) that it could linger into Friday and Saturday, potentially bringing heavy snowfall and major travel disruptions. Travelers should keep a close eye on this developing system as the week progresses.
As temperatures drop, expect increasing cloud cover tonight, with low-level moisture potentially creating some stratus in the northeast corner overnight. Stay warm and drive safe!
