Accumulating snow in the forecast

From Chief Meteorologist Steve Hamilton:
Snow Thursday Night Into Friday? It's possible...

We'll have some moderation on our daytime highs for most of the Foothills on Tuesday. The exceptions will be around the Fairplay area, where we'll stay in the 30s. High pressure will gradually strengthen over the Central Rockies on Wednesday, resulting in very gusty wind for most areas. Some of the more wind-prone areas could have gusts in the 40-45 mph range. Then things start to get interesting on Thursday. We're tracking a low pressure trough coming into the Pacific Northwest. That should drop southward and cut across Colorado late Thursday and into Friday. It's looking like we may have enough moist air available for isolated to scattered rain/snow showers beginning Thursday afternoon. Our best precipitation chances will be late Thursday night into Friday. This is a fairly fast-moving system, so snow accumulation should be light, but a little is better than none. This could also mean the first measurable snowfall for the Denver Metro this season.

From US National Weather Service Denver/Boulder:
It's been a long time since we can say this but we finally have accumulating snow for the majority of Colorado in the forecast! It won't be much across the I-25 corridor and plains but it appears likely that our snowless streak will come to an end in Denver.
