Across the Denver metro and towards Akron, there will be a sharp gradient of snowfall amounts. In the southern suburbs of Denver, up to 4" of snow may fall. While on the north side of the metro and towards Akron, 0.5-2" are forecast. Travel impacts will be much less north of I-70 today but there will be slick and snow-covered roads nonetheless. Snow tapers off this evening before moving back in Friday morning. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Friday through Wednesday Moderate to heavy snow is possible over the southern half of the forecast area on Friday into Saturday morning as the storm system of the last few days is finally expected to push out of the area.

Dry conditions with warming temperatures are expected Sunday and Monday with the next quick moving system to bring a chance of snow to the mountains and a slight chance of rain to the plains. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
