The largest snowstorm so far this season on Colorado’s Front Range came to an end on Wednesday night, and some impressive snow total results have come in from many different areas. In the hardest hit areas, snowfall numbers reached near a foot.
The blast of moisture that moved in overnight, coupled with colder temperatures, made road conditions slick and icy and brought traffic to a crawl at times. No large school districts in the Denver metro area called off classes for the day, but many districts in the Colorado Springs area to the south went on a delayed start Wednesday morning. Some schools will also be on delayed start on Thursday morning. (See the full list.)
