Just before daybreak, more than 300 flights had been cancelled at the airport on Monday and another 50 flights had been delayed. That's the most out of any airport in the country Monday morning, according to the FlightAware.com.

The past few days have already been difficult to travel to and from Colorado. On Sunday, 277 flights were cancelled at the airport, with another nearly 700 flights delayed due to wintry conditions.

Across the country, delays and cancellations have also been impacting airports for the third day in a row due to severely cold temperatures and snow.
