Colorado Snow Totals: Commerce City Records Highest Denver Metro Area Accumulation
DENVER (CBS4) - Although the winter storm in Colorado on this First Alert Weather Day did not have much moisture, very cold temperatures have allowed for impressive snow reports in many areas. A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect in the Denver metro area until 8 p.m. Wednesday.
The list below are snow reports as of about 2:30 p.m. on Wednesday, and Commerce City appears to be in the lead for the most accumulation in the Denver metro area with 13.6 inches!
Many areas will see at least another additional inch of snow during the remainder of the day so these are not "final" numbers. And because this storm has produced several snow "bands" instead of widespread and consistent snow, reports can vary significantly in the same town or city.
The most recent official snow total for Denver measured at Denver International Airport was 2.1 inches as of 5 a.m. Wednesday.
