Denver has a 20 percent chance of isolated showers or thunderstorms this afternoon, as the Pacific moisture lingers across the state for another day, the National Weather Service said this afternoon.
The metro region could wake up to showers tomorrow morning, as well, with a 40 percent chance of moisture. Depending on the timing, the city could get up to a half-inch of snow, forecasters said.
Sunnier skies and temperatures in the 50s and 60s close out the work week, before a slight chance or rain or show Friday night.
The moisture sweeping the state is continuing to cause problems in the high country.
Mountain ranges that picked up more than 10 inches of snow over the weekend could see 8 to 16 more inches by Tuesday evening with 30 mph wind gusts, according to the National Weather Service in Grand Junction.
A winter storm warning is in effect until midnight Tuesday for areas above 9,000 feet in the Park, Elk, San Juan and Sawatch ranges, including Aspen, Vail, Ouray, Telluride and Lake City.
Farther east, a winter weather advisory is in effect until midnight Tuesday for some areas above 9,000 feet in Grand, Jackson, Larimer, Gilpin, Clear Creek, Summit and Park counties.
The area could see 6 to 12 inches of snow, driven by wind gusts up to 40 mph.
The advisory includes Rabbit Ears Pass, Rocky Mountain National Park, Breckenridge, Mount Evans and Winter Park.
The late-season snow has helped boost the statewide snowpack for this time of year to 125 percent of its 30-year average as of today, according to the Natural Resources Conservation Service in Lakewood.
The boost includes 151 percent of average in the basins of the Yampa and White rivers, 140 percent in the Colorado River basin and 139 percent in the South Platte River basin, according to the federal agency that measures snowpack.
The weekend storm was kind to parched Front Range, which lagged in snow this season and has had a number of early-season wildfires partly as a result.
Rain totals since Saturday have ranged 1.27 inches of rain at Cherry Creek Reservoir to 2.12 inches in Golden Gate Canyon, according to the National Weather Service.
