Screen Shot 2019 01 20 at 6.27.17 PM Accumulating Snow To Start The Week...
We'll have an interesting weather situation brewing up over the foothills starting Monday afternoon into Tuesday, with snow possible. Low pressure is expected to strengthen by about midday Monday, and slide southeastward over the foothills and into eastern Colorado. We'll have clouds most of Monday, precipitation beginning by early afternoon Monday. As the low moves out into the plains, we can expect some upslope flow, providing several inches of snow for most of the foothills between Monday evening and about midday Tuesday. Gusty wind and cold temperatures will accompany this system. Our weather will improve and warm up a little by Wednesday.
