As was expected, big overnight snow landed in Colorado, favoring the part of the state that lies south of I-70.
Two areas that got the most snow include the mountains southwest of Aspen, Colorado, where up to 30 inches of snow has been recorded over the past 24 hours, according to National Weather Service mapping. Outside of those select peaks, much of this area got at least 18 inches, with the town of Aspen sitting right in the middle of an area that got two feet of snow.
Meanwhile, peaks east and south of Salida also got big snow to the tune of up to 24 inches. The town itself, however, saw totals closer to the eight to 12-inch range.
Totals in that 8 to 12-inch range were relatively widespread in the central mountain region.
While some mountain towns did stack up some big snow totals, perhaps most notable snowfall landed on the Front Range due to the widespread impacts that were the result.
Snow in the range of eight to 12 inches fell between Colorado Springs and Denver, as well as on the plains east of Denver. This resulted in chaos on the roads, with a stretch of more than 100 miles of I-70 facing various closures. The southwestern suburbs of Denver also got snow in this range.
