Buckle up: Another late season winter storm will impact the area Wednesday night through Thursday

April 15, 2020 / BoulderCAST Team

As if we haven’t had our fill of winter already this week, another potent storm system will bring more accumulating snow to the Boulder and Denver area Wednesday night and into Thursday. This approaching storm isn’t as cold as the one earlier this week, but does have more moisture to work with and a very efficient mechanism to produce moderate to heavy snow. As a result, many locations will likely see more snow in the next 36 hours than what fell on Easter Sunday and Monday combined! Read on for a discussion of the incoming winter wonderland and a look at our snowfall forecast map.
