DENVER—Highways closed by drifting snow in southeast Colorado have been reopened.
The snow storm that stretched from the Front Range to the eastern plains Thursday dumped up to a foot of snow in parts of eastern Colorado. High winds whipped snow into tall drifts that kept some highways closed until midmorning Saturday.
Mike Murray of the Colorado Department of Transportation says U.S. 287 from Lamar to the Oklahoma line is now open.
Other highways reopened are U.S. 160 from Springfield to the Kansas line and Colorado 109 from La Junta to Kim.
