Heavy Mountain snow into Colorado weekend
Our next big thing is the combination of a deep low pressure trough, California low and another atmospheric river.
This next weather change will be a major snow maker for the mountains of Colorado. In fact, some areas of our state may be buried with 1 to 3 feet of snow by Saturday night. There is a Winter Storm Warning for the western mountains of our home state and a Winter Weather Advisory for eastern mountains like the northern Front Range and the Sangre De Cristo mountains.
CDOT warns next 2 days will be snowy in Colorado mountains, expect I-70 ski traffic to be heavy
Valentine's Day for the Denver metro area will be warmer with passing clouds. By afternoon a few rain showers may pop up going into the evening.
Saturday will be colder for the Denver metro area with a chance for light snow. At this time, it looks like 1/2 inch to just under 2 inches possible for the metro area.
