National Weather Service has issued a Winter Storm Warning through 8:00 a.m. tomorrow morning with 4-8" possible today and another 3-5" tonight. However, the bulk of this system has centered over Colorado and we are just on the western edge of the moisture. Some mountain clearing is already occurring this morning though we may see another impulse after noon. High temperatures today at 10,000' will be in the low to mid 20's and south winds this morning will average 15-20 mph with gusts as high as 50. Winds will shift to NW this afternoon which I fear may leave us with an all "huff and not much puff," situation.
Today
Snow before 11am, then snow showers between 11am and 5pm, then snow after 5pm. Areas of blowing snow before 3pm. High near 24. Breezy, with a south wind 15 to 25 mph becoming northwest in the afternoon. Winds could gust as high as 50 mph. Chance of precipitation is 90%.
