DENVER â Models for the upcoming snow show everything from a few inches to several feet, but there s a reason there s so many different forecasts out there about the storm coming in, according to Denver7 Chief Meteorologist Mike Nelson.
As of Tuesday evening, the storm was about 1,000 miles away, just coming in to the west coast â it has to cross the Sierra Nevada, the Wasatch and then the Rocky Mountains of Colorado before it even gets to the Eastern Plains and impacts the Denver area.
Meteorologists are trying to get a handle on predictions for a "high impact storm" loaded with snow and headed for Colorado s mountains and Front Range later this week.
