Following our second consecutive 70-degree day, Mother Nature has big changes in store for tonight.

Unlike the previous event, the focus for heavy snow this time will be to the east of Denver, near the core of a rapidly intensifying surface low pressure.

March 14, 2016 / Ben Castellani

If you are sick of the warmth and lack of decent skiing, this week’s weather will be welcomed. The focus for the week ahead will be a slow-moving trough which takes hold across the center of the country. This will bring an extended period of cooler weather to the region and heavy snow to the Mountains. We’re also monitoring a chance of snow for the Plains towards the end of the week.
