Here are snowfall totals along some of the main travel corridors for the upcoming snowstorm. The mountains and foothills have the highest chance of seeing hazardous travel conditions while lower elevations may see a lot of the snow melt on the roadways. Plan ahead! #COwx pic.twitter.com/v7VgGdmxMw

The storm should also delivered a significant amount of snow to our friends at Arapahoe Basin. OpenSnow is currently calling for 18 inches of snow from the storm.
That should give A-Basin a nice boost to round out their last few weeks of the season. Get out there and enjoy it while you can, friends!
