Season’s First Snow

The snow is flying across the portions of the Colorado Rockies above 6,500 feet. The National Weather Service has issued a Winter Storm Watch for tonight into Wednesday afternoon. Snowfall 6"-18" is possible into Wednesday with some blowing and drifting, too, especially over the Palmer Divide. Snowfall, as of noon CT Tuesday, has been relatively light with the highest report being 5" in Stonewall, CO. The storm that is bringing this snow will intensify overnight into Wednesday morning and heavier snow is expected. Here is a live look at I-70 at Vail Pass where snow has already fallen and more is forecast.
