Developmental Probabilistic Snow Accumulation Forecast (APA)
National Weather Service Denver/Boulder, Colorado
2112 MDT Thursday, April 03, 2025

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This developmental product contains the probabilities (%) that the given snow
amounts (inches) will occur at Centennial Airport during the respective
3 hour or 12 hour periods.  The probabilities indicate the amount of snow that
is expected to accumulate on runways and other concrete surfaces at APA.
[T (trace) means more than zero.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Discussion (04/00-05/00 MDT): Snow showers will continue to decrease this
evening.  There will be a break between midnight Thursday night and early Friday
morning, before the next round of light snow develops Friday mid morning. This
snow will continue well into Friday night before ending early Monday morning.
Similar conditions are expected on Friday with runways initially too warm for
accumulating snow.  Worst case scenario would be 2" accumulation in the evening
hours of Friday as colder temperatures could support snow on runways.
