Snow is headed for the Denver area again Monday and this time it could stick, according to the National Weather Service.
“Get ready for a change to winter weather Sunday night into Monday,” NWS forecasters said. “It could be a tricky commute Monday morning in and around the Denver metro area.”
Drivers should allow extra time for their commute and make sure they’re prepared to drive in the winter weather as travel conditions could turn from poor to hazardous, forecasters said.
Downtown Denver could see between 1/2 inch and 4 inches of snow stack up Monday morning as rain turns to snow overnight, according to NWS forecasters.
Forecasters said Arvada, Aurora, Centennial, and Lakewood are also forecast to see up to 4 inches of snow accumulation, and Parker and Highlands Ranch could see up to 6 inches of snowfall.
Before rain starts in the metro area on Sunday, Denver will see mostly sunny skies and a high near 56 degrees. Rain is expected to start around 5 p.m. and turn to snow around 2 a.m. as temperatures fall below freezing, NWS forecasters said.
Rainy, snowy weather will return to the Denver area Tuesday night and could continue off-and-on through the weekend, according to forecasters.
“The most likely outcome is a widespread light snow event with about a 20 percent chance that it turns into a snowstorm with heavy snow and major impacts,” NWS forecasters said in a Hazardous Weather Alert.
