Icy, slushy roads and continuing snowfall will make driving to work a slow, grueling challenge for many Denverites Tuesday morning.
Splashback from tractor-trailer trucks and zooming dare-devils will also impair driving conditions even though the spring storm is winding down.
The total overnight snow accumulation in the Denver area is expected to be 2 to 3 inches, with the accumulation mostly on grassy areas, according to the National Weather Service in Boulder.
The skies will gradually clear and it will be partly sunny. The temperature in Denver will rise to about 48 degrees.
There’s a 20 percent chance for rain on Wednesday afternoon. It will be partly sunny with a high near 52 degrees. Winds could gust up to 15 mph. Rain is expected until around 11 p.m. and then there is a chance for snow after 4 a.m. Thursday.
It will be partly sunny on Thursday, with a high of 53 degrees. It will warm up to about 62 degrees on Friday, the weather service says. It will be mostly sunny on Saturday as well.
There’s a slight chance for rain showers on Sunday.
