Denver will see clear skies and warming temperatures for several days after a winter storm dropped over five inches of snow in the city and over 20 inches in the foothills and mountains.
The storm Saturday caused over 1,000 delays and cancellations at Denver International Airport as rain turned to snow Saturday morning.
Parts of Golden and Lakewood received over 15 inches of snow, and in the foothills west of the metro area, Kassler in southern Jefferson County and Crescent Village in Boulder County received 20 inches of snow.
Crested Butte received the most snow with 24 inches falling by 4 p.m. Saturday.
Drivers experienced some treacherous road conditions, and Interstate 70 closed several times during the storm.
The snow and precipitation have mostly cleared out of the state, though some areas of the northeast plains could see some rain showers Sunday.
Denver’s high temperatures will stay at or above 40 degrees all week, with a couple days in the 50s possible.
Some areas that had more significant snowfall could be slower to warm.
Overnight lows will still be chilly, with Sunday night’s low dropping to 22 degrees.
Fog could be an issue for some areas overnight, as it was Sunday morning northeast of Denver where a Dense Fog Advisory was in effect.
Thursday could see some snow return to Denver as another storm system sweeps through the state.
