Classic upslope blizzard dumps moisture over eastern Colorado and the Front Range

Our November storm is still alive and kicking with heavy pockets of snow expected through Saturday morning. So far, the storm is not a record, but this has been the largest multi-day November snowstorm Denver has seen in 30 years. Since Tuesday, Denver International Airport has accumulated 13.8 inches of snow. The last time we had this much snow was over two days — in November 1994 — the 13th and 14th of that year.

More snow is expected Saturday morning with another 6 to 9 inches in the Denver metro area and another 6 to 12 inches in the Jefferson County foothills and Palmer Divide. Travel will be difficult through Saturday and impossible across eastern and southern Colorado.

Winter storm warnings and advisories will remain in place through Saturday morning with snow accumulations slowly diminishing.

Snowfall amounts around the Denver metro area have ranged from 9 to 20 inches of snow as of early Friday night.

Areas of southern Colorado have seen anywhere from 1 to over 3 feet of snow with more on the way.
