11:45 a.m.: The Denver Museum of Nature & Science will close at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 29.

All evening activities are canceled. The museum will reopen for normal operations at 9 a.m. tomorrow, Oct. 30, unless otherwise stated, officials said.

11 a.m.: The Denver Zoo will be closed due to snowy conditions on Tuesday, Oct. 29, officials announced on Twitter this morning.

However, that hasn’t stopped Nick and Luci — two of the City Park institution’s sea lions — from enjoying “a nice relaxing soak in their heated pool.”

Also cancelled for tonight:  in Boulder. The daughter of famed astronomer Carl Sagan was scheduled to appear at Boulder Book Store tonight, but will now sit out the appearance due to weather.

“We are trying reschedule, but if you purchased a voucher, please call the store for a refund (303-447-2074),” organizers wrote in an email.
