According to the experts at the National Weather Service, the Denver area is in for another round of snow on Monday. And this time, it looks like it might actually stick. So, if you have any plans for that day, you might want to start preparing for a change in the weather.
The NWS forecasters have issued a warning for Sunday night into Monday, saying that the transition to winter weather could make for a tricky commute in and around the Denver metro area. They're advising drivers to leave a little earlier and be cautious on the roads, as conditions could quickly become hazardous.
In fact, downtown Denver is expected to see anywhere from 1/2 inch to 4 inches of snow by Monday morning. This is due to a shift from rain to snow overnight. And it's not just the city that will be affected – suburbs like Arvada, Aurora, Centennial, and Lakewood could also see up to 4 inches of snow accumulation. Further south, Parker and Highlands Ranch may even get up to 6 inches of snowfall.
But before the snow starts, Sunday in Denver will be mostly sunny with a high of 56 degrees. The rain is expected to roll in around 5 p.m. and then gradually turn into snow around 2 a.m. as temperatures dip below freezing, according to the NWS forecasters.
And if you were hoping for a break from the wintry weather, unfortunately, it doesn't look like that will be the case. Forecasters are predicting that rainy, snowy conditions will persist through Tuesday night and possibly even into the weekend.
In their Hazardous Weather Alert, the NWS forecasters stated that the most likely outcome is a light snow event, but there is a 20 percent chance that it could turn into a full-blown snowstorm with heavy snow and significant impacts. So, it's important to stay updated on the weather in your area and take necessary precautions.
