More Snow!

Currently steady snowfall in SW Denver at this hour with a nice SE wind bringing snow bands through the area. Low pressure located near four corners area associated with a upper level trough will continue to move eastward but will hang up in the central mountains later this afternoon before making it onto eastern plains late tonight. This will give the Front Range area a shifting wind from the East to the North to finally NW by early morning. Low level SE flow mixed with upper level SW flow are great ingredients for Front Range snow lasting into this evening late. Accumulation in SW Denver area will be 1-3 inches. After the trough passes a shallow ridge will form in place and clear the skies for Tuesday and most of Wednesday. Wednesday afternoon should see light clouds form lasting through Thursdays morning ahead of the next system to affect the Western Slope Wednesday and Thursday.
