DENVER — Tonight, a storm will move across the region and bring snow to the mountains. The heaviest and most organized snow will fall early tonight, mainly along and north of the I-70 Corridor. Snow will slow down late tonight, but light snow will continue in the northern mountains into Monday afternoon.
Snow amounts will vary: areas from Rabbit Ears Pass northward could see 4–10 inches, with even higher spots possible. The northern Front Range mountains should get 3–6 inches. The I-70 Corridor and Summit County will likely see much less, around half an inch to 3 inches, because the best moisture and best mountain wind patterns do not line up at the same time.
Winds will also pick up tonight, especially along the Front Range foothills. A few spots could see very strong gusts overnight, but widespread damaging winds are not expected.
Tuesday will be calmer and a bit cool, but still slightly warmer than normal. Wednesday should also stay mild and mostly dry as the next storm approaches from the southwest.
Late-week weather is uncertain. Depending on how the next storm develops and where it tracks, we could see anything from a light event to more noticeable rain or snow. It may take a couple more days before the forecast becomes clearer, but next weekend looks to turn drier and near normal for temperatures.
Also, a heads up that we might be in the deep freeze for Thanksgiving as arctic air takes over a huge portion of the U.S.
