Colorado snowstorm dumps 28 inches in Estes Park, just 3 in Firestone
A late-season Colorado snowstorm produced highly variable totals—from 28 inches in Estes Park to 3 inches in Firestone—with the Denver metro area generally seeing 5–7 inches (4.7 inches at DIA). Evergreen in Jefferson County led with 15 inches, while other parts of Weld County saw lighter accumulations. The storm prompted school cancellations and will be followed by freeze warnings through Thursday, with a warming trend expected next week. CDOT deployed about 100 snowplows and did not pre-treat roads given recent warm conditions.
