Some Snow Through Thursday Night... Nice Weekend Coming Up...
An area of low pressure will move across Colorado on Thursday and Thursday night. This system isn't particularly strong, but with colder air coming in from the west, we'll have the potential for some accumulating snowfall for most of the foothills. The best chance for snow will be Thursday afternoon into the mid-evening hours. Along with the snow will come breezy to gusty conditions.
As for accumulation, about the most we'll see is 3" anywhere across our area. Conifer, Alma and Fairplay could get about 3", with maybe 2" in Evergreen, and 1-2" elsewhere. The wind will make for hazardous travel Thursday afternoon and evening, and roads will likely be slick. High pressure moves in on Friday, with a fair and mild weekend ahead.
