Colorado can expect a warm and quiet weekend before a snowstorm hits early next week. The storm system, originating from the Gulf of Alaska and east of Hawaii, is expected to bring rain and snow on Monday night into Tuesday morning. While exact amounts are not yet known, several inches of snow are possible, though the storm is not expected to be large. This will likely slow down travel on roads in the Front Range and eastern Colorado. Temperatures will cool down, with highs in the 40s for most of the week.
Long term snow models are currently predicting 3 to 6 inches of snow in the Denver metro area, with higher amounts in the foothills. The transition from February to March will be smooth, with high temperatures in the low 60s through Monday before the storm arrives.
Chief Meteorologist Dave Aguilera advises viewers to stay tuned for more accurate snowfall totals as the weekend progresses. The storm is set to shake things up in Colorado early next week, bringing much-needed snow to the region. Residents are encouraged to prepare for winter weather conditions and possible travel disruptions as the storm rolls in.
