A storm system hits the mountains Tuesday-Wednesday. The Western Slope ski areas get the most accumulation, with 6-12 inches expected. We are forecasting 4-8 inches from Vail to Summit County to the Eisenhower Tunnel. Expect strong winds of 40-80 miles per hour.
Those strong winds fan-out across Denver and the Front Range on Wednesday with gusts 25-50 miles per hour.
We are including a 10% chance for rain showers across the Front Range on Wednesday as the cold front slides through.
