WWUS45 KBOU 162046 WSWBOU URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE National Weather Service Denver CO 246 PM MDT Wed Mar 16 2022 ...AREAS OF HEAVY SNOW THROUGH ... .Snow will spread into the mountains this morning, with scattered rain showers developing on the plains this afternoon. As temperatures cool this evening, widespread snow will develop on the plains. The snow is expected to be heavy at times over the east slopes of the Front Range and south of Denver. There is much uncertainty about how much it will snow in Denver based on the timing of the change to snow this evening and the exact location of the area of heavy snow. In areas below 6000 feet, the impacts will be reduced due to warm temperatures that will stay in the lower 30s much of the night. However, areas of slushy roads and poor visibility can be expected. In the foothills, roads may be slushy this evening but will become snowpacked or icy by Thursday morning. Expect impacts on the Thursday morning commute, especially in areas west and south of Denver.
