Colorado weather: Where, when and how much snow to expect during mid-week snowstorm
Snow is falling in the mountains Tuesday morning and flurries could arrive in the Denver area overnight, according to the National Weather Service.
NWS forecasters said the second snowfall of the week could continue through the weekend.
A Winter Weather Advisory will be in effect for mountain ranges above 9,000 feet and Jefferson, Douglas, Gilpin, Clear Creek, Park and Elbert counties from 8 p.m. Tuesday to 8 p.m. Wednesday, NWS forecasters said.
According to NWS snow forecasts, between 5 a.m. Tuesday and 5 a.m. Thursday:
- Denver and Arvada could see between 1 and 6 inches of snow;
- Aurora, Lakewood and Littleton could see between 2 and 7 inches of snow;
- Centennial, Golden and Highlands Ranch could see between 3 and 8 inches of snow;
- Parker could see up to 10 inches of snow.
Snow is expected to start around 7 p.m. Tuesday in the metro area as temperatures fall below freezing, forecasters said.
Forecasters said higher elevations, especially in Colorado’s mountains, could see more than a foot of snow by Wednesday night.
- Cordova Pass in southwestern Colorado’s Spanish Peaks could see between 13 and 22 inches of snow;
- Wolf Creek Pass and La Manga Pass in southwestern Colorado’s San Juan Mountains could see between 12 and 22 inches of snow;
- Cucharas Pass, North La Veta Pass and Pass Creek Pass in central Colorado’s Sangre de Cristo Mountains could see between 14 and 23 inches of snow;
- Rabbit Ears Pass, Rocky Mountain National Park and the
Medicine Bow Mountain Range could see between 3 and 10 inches of snow.
“The unsettled weather pattern will continue Thursday into Saturday with below-normal temperatures and a chance of snow,” NWS forecasters said in a Hazardous Weather Outlook. “There is still some uncertainty with the forecast specifics into later part of this week, so future forecasts could have more snow expected than the current thinking.”
Temperature highs in the Denver area will plummet into the low 30s on Wednesday and Thursday before rising back into the mid-40s on Friday, according to NWS forecasters.
Severe weather shelters in Denver will remain open through Thursday morning, according to city officials.
“Hazardous” weather conditions will start Tuesday evening, especially in the mountains, and could continue in the Denver area through Wednesday’s morning commute, forecasters said in the Hazardous Weather Outlook.

Denver Nuggets Altitude broadcasts now being offered in Spanish for first time ever
For the first time in the team’s history, Altitude Sports is broadcasting Denver Nuggets home games in Spanish. Kroenke Sports and Entertainment announced it has contracted a team to broadcast its games in Spanish for the playoffs.
“I think that is what the public wanted,” said Ivan De La Garza, producer for the broadcast team.
A team of three people, two commentators and a producer, sit in a press box at the top of Ball Arena. Their commentary is then synced with the traditional Altitude broadcast video and shared on the Altitude Plus application.
“With the Nuggets winning in the last five years, there is a tremendous amount of following from Latino people trying to listen to and watch the games in Spanish,” said Andres Casas, color commentator for the broadcast.
Casas said he strives to bring the same energy fans get during soccer broadcasts into the basketball broadcasts.
“That excitement that gets you. We want people to feel they are at the game,” Casas said.
“It has been so amazing to be a part of the Spanish broadcast for the Nuggets. I have been a fan of the Nuggets for my whole life,” said Jena Garcia, play-by-play commentator.
Garcia said it has been a dream come true to help bring this broadcast to her community.
“I’ve always desired to hear a Spanish broadcast, just as a fan. To be a part of it is just incredible,” Garcia said.
Those working in the broadcast said they are honored to help expand the reach of the Nuggets and sports in accessing diverse communities.
“We love sports. We are passionate, we are loud. We like to get together and enjoy sports,” De La Garza said.
“The Nuggets have a huge following, especially on the Spanish side. So, it is great for them to be able to listen to what is going on, game by game, especially into the playoffs,” Casas said.
“It is just another step of access that they are getting to be a fan of basketball,” Garcia said.
