Steady snow is creating slick driving conditions in the Denver area. And there's more snow on the way...

A low pressure system is slowly tracking to the north and east, resulting in steady snow across much of eastern Colorado.  Winter Weather Advisories (purple) and Winter Storm Warning (pink) have been issued through this evening. An additional 2-8" is expected across the Palmer Divide, 4-10" across I-70 with lighter amounts to the north.
