Todays Forecast:We're waking up this morning to reports of 6-12" of snow in Colorado Springs and much more is on the way. The first round of snow will taper off during the day, with a brief break in most areas through this evening. The best advice today is to avoid travel and to let the plows do their thing. Any unplowed or untreated roads are going to be messy, so plan on a slow go if you're trying to get somewhere today.A Winter Storm Warning will remain in effect until 11 am in El Paso County, with a Winter Storm Watch being issued tonight starting at 11 pm in advance of our next round of snow.Colorado Springs forecast: High: 31; Low: 20.
