I-70 and Kipling, Arvada, Colorado (PWS) Updated: 4 min 13 sec ago Snow 19.0 °F Snow Freezing Fog Blowing Snow Windchill: 8 °F Humidity: 90% Dew Point: 16 °F Wind: 10.0 mph from the North Wind Gust: 17.0 mph Pressure: 30.05 in (Falling) Visibility: 0.5 miles UV: 2 out of 16 Clouds: Mostly Cloudy 500 ft Overcast 1200 ft (Above Ground Level) Elevation: 5370 ft Snow heavy at times over the entire area through this evening. North to northeast winds of 20 to 30 mph with gusts to around 40 mph will produce blizzard conditions and considerable drifting snow on the plains by afternoon. The worst conditions are expected to be in areas south of a line from Boulder to Akron.
Total snow acculations by late Thursday night will range from 6 to 12 inches across the northeast plains... with 8 to 16 inches of snow from the Denver Metro area to Limon... and one to two feet in Douglas and western Elbert counties. The snow and prolonged winds will also produce considerable drifting of snow.
Precautionary/preparedness actions...
A Blizzard Warning means severe winter weather conditions are occurring or imminent. Sustained wind and/or frequent wind gusts of 35 mph or higher will combine with considerable falling and blowing snow to produce widespread visibilities below one quarter of a mile. Travel will be extremely dangerous and is discouraged in these whiteout conditions. If you must travel... have a winter survival kit with you. If you get stranded... stay with your vehicle and wait for help to arrive.
