DENVER (KDVR) – The massive snowstorm along the Colorado Front Range ramped up quickly to blizzard conditions, with the National Weather Service issuing a blizzard warning around noon Sunday.

Coloradans experienced scary situations, with winds and heavy snow causing damage to trees and property, and cars getting stuck on treacherous roads:

  • “We are begging you…STAY HOME! Cars and vehicles that are low to the ground have a ZERO percent chance of clearing 128/121 over US 36. Wadsworth is also a parking lot. This is not an exaggeration.” – Broomfield Police Department tweeted on Sunday.
