Winter Weather Pummels Colorado with Heavy Snow and Arctic Chill

Colorado has been experiencing a significant winter storm, bringing nearly 2 feet of snow in some areas from February 14-15. This system has forced highway closures across the mountains and the Front Range due to dangerous driving conditions and numerous crashes. As residents prepare for the Presidents’ Day weekend, traffic is expected to ramp up amid heavy snowfall, particularly in ski areas. While Sunday will bring some respite with sunny skies and warmer temperatures, another round of snow is anticipated Monday, along with an Arctic blast dropping temperatures to as low as -15°F with wind chill. Skigear is ready as local ski areas brace for multiple feet of fresh powder. The National Weather Service has issued advisories, urging drivers to exercise caution in light of the severe weather.
