Sunday Update: Snowfall Forecast Update, Storm on Track
Author image by Brendan Heberton on 15 February 2015

We're coming down to the wire on very tricky forecast for the next 24 to 36 hours. As we've been saying all week, this system has the potential to go a number of ways. Generally speaking, models have upped snowfall totals across the forecast area for this afternoon through Monday evening. The greatest potential for heaviest snow will be in areas in, and immediately adjacent to, the Foothills.

The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for Denver through Monday afternoon. There will be a chance for snow off and on from early afternoon Sunday through much of the day Monday. Snow will be heavy at times.

We can be a little less wishy-washy for those living closer to the foothills, and in the foothills the snowfall forecast is higher confidence than across lower elevations to the east. Some foothill communities could reach or exceed a foot of snow.
