A spring storm is rolling through Colorado and the snow is moving through the Denver area and the Front Range.Friday will be a much colder, unsettled day with snow continuing into the early afternoon. The mountains will see the heaviest accumulation, with about 3-6 inches in the valleys and up to 9 inches on the passes. We'll see much lighter snow across the Eastern Plains, with around 1 to 2 inches by early Friday afternoon. Highs will struggle to reach the upper 30s to low 40s. Friday night brings clearing skies, but that also means temperatures will drop sharply. A hard freeze is expected across the plains, with lows falling into the upper teens and 20s. If you have plants or anything sensitive outdoors, theyll need protection. Itll feel more like mid-winter than mid-April by the time you wake up Saturday morning. A freeze warning is in effect Friday night into Saturday morning for temperatures around 20 degrees in Denver and across the plains.Temperatures will gradually climb into the upper 50s by Saturday afternoon and we'll see a lot of melting across the state. It will be even warmer on Sunday, with highs near 70 degrees. This warmer weather continues into early next week!
