Conditions early Wednesday morning are a bit of a mix bag out there with freezing fog, freezing drizzle, and light snow ongoing across portions of the Metro area.

Accumulations will generally be light and will favor areas south and southeast of Denver. We’ve got the latest details and our snowfall forecast map for you.
A shortwave trough from the Pacific Northwest will track into the Desert Southwest over the next few days and be a player for our weather through much of the week ahead. A cold front moving south Monday night will bring a threat of a wintry mix of freezing drizzle, snow and rain into early Tuesday, with some slick spots possible in Boulder and Fort Collins. Afterwards, the system is forecast to remain south of us the rest of the week but could bring a slight chance of snow for the Front Range Plains Wednesday or Thursday — but that chance is slim. Otherwise, this week will be mainly dry with below normal temperatures preceding a warming trend heading into the weekend. The outlook for a “white” Christmas is also not looking so good.
