DENVER (KDVR) — A snowstorm is headed for Colorado. While Denver will only see a few flakes, other areas across the state could see more than half a foot of snow.

Despite the sunny skies over Colorado this past weekend, the Precise weather teams are tracking a storm expected to last until Monday afternoon.

In Denver, temperatures will be above freezing, so the metro could see just a few flakes Monday evening with little to no accumulation. Other areas in the southern half of the state have better chances.
