Boulder Snow This Weekend: What To Expect

BOULDER, CO -- Boulder got a quick hit of snow early this morning, and more is on the way this afternoon. According to the National Weather Service, Boulder could see between two and four inches by tomorrow morning. Totals will be higher to the west and in the foothills.

The snow is likely to get going around 4 p.m. today, so if you are able to modify the timing of your commute, cold temperatures during the day mean that the accumulation we do get is likely to stick. The snow will continue overnight into Saturday, but by Sunday, temperatures should be up into the mid-40s.
