This hazardous weather outlook is for northeast and north central
Colorado.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight

Gusty winds up to 60 mph will through the mid morning in and near
the foothills.

Snow will arrive between 4 and 6pm this evening and will continue
into Saturday morning. There is concern that the initial snow may
initially melt on contact and then freeze after colder air
arrives. This "flash freeze" could make road conditions very icy
for the end of the evening commute. Snowfall amounts for the I-25
corridor will range from 3 to 7 inches, with up to 10 inches on
the east slopes of the Front Range. The eastern plains will have
an inch or two of snow, but that could still produce some travel
impacts.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday

An arctic airmass will bring bitterly cold air to Colorado
beginning Saturday and lasting through Tuesday morning. Low
temperatures could reach -5 to -15 degrees across the I-25
corridor and eastern plains. Temperatures during the day Monday
may remain near zero. Wind chill values may reach as low as 30
degrees below zero creating danger for people, livestock, and pets
spending time outside. The coldest conditions will be Sunday
night through Monday night.

Light snow continues into Saturday. The snow combined with the
cold conditions will likely keep roads snow covered slippery
through Saturday and into Saturday night. Another round of light
snow is expected Sunday night into Monday.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation will not be needed today or tonight.
