Developmental Probabilistic Snow Accumulation Forecast
National Weather Service Denver/Boulder, Colorado
2029 MDT Wednesday, April 17, 2024

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This developmental product contains the probabilities (%) that the given snow
amounts (inches) will occur at Denver International Airport during the respec-
tive 3- or 12-hour periods.  The probabilities indicate the amount of snow that
is expected to accumulate on runways and other concrete surfaces at DIA.
[T (trace) means more than zero.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Short Term (17/21-19/00 MDT): Scattered rain showers this evening may turn into
rain/snow mix overnight, then a brief window of snow showers Thursday morning
near 12z. Any snow showers will be light and with the pavement being warm, snow
is not likely to stick. In the worst case scenario, there could be a half inch
of accumulation.
