DENVER — Saturday’s mild conditions in the Denver metro area will soon make way for colder temperatures and a rain and snow mix come Sunday.
“The mountains will get a fairly decent storm out of this with as much as 8 to 16 inches of snow in the southwest with 3 to 6 inches possible across the southwest part of the metro down into Jefferson County and maybe Douglas County,” said Denver7 Chief Meteorologist Mike Nelson. Snow totals could reach up to 6 inches in Denver’s southern and western suburbs but will remain near 2 to 4 inches across most of the metro. The foothills and Palmer Divide area will see heavier amounts, 4 to 8 inches in some areas.
