Denver weather: Snow ends leaving behind slick roads
DENVER (KDVR) — Snow is finishing up in the metro area on Monday morning. There will be little to no additional accumulation in Denver.
Some areas in Colorado, however, will get another 1-2 inches of snow, mainly in the high country.
With that being said, a Pinpoint Weather Alert Day was issued for Monday as impacts are lingering, including slippery roads and poor visibility in the Denver weather forecast. The Pinpoint Weather team recommends against traveling if you can avoid it, especially in the first half of the day.

Monday will also be very breezy with gusts up to 40 mph at times.
Pinpoint Weather: Wind gusts on March 25 Pinpoint Weather: Additional snowfall by March 25 at 10 p.m.
Weather today: Overcast and breezy
Winds will be particularly strong Monday, as gusts will come out of the north anywhere from 20-30 mph. This, along with heavy cloud cover, will ensure below-average temperatures.
Gusts in and around the metro area could top out at 40 mph. Additionally, while there will be some melting, the solar shovel will unfortunately not be out in full force so the roads could remain a problem by Monday afternoon.
High temperatures will be in the middle 30s.
Weather tonight: Mostly cloudy with blustery winds
Denver will remain dry overnight as lows sink into the middle teens under mostly cloudy skies. There will be some melting during the day, but then that moisture will refreeze overnight on the roadways, bringing slippery road conditions again for Tuesday’s commute.
Winds will stay out of the north between 10-20 mph and gusts up to 30 mph.
Looking ahead: Drying out and warming up
Partly cloudy to mostly sunny skies dominate the area on Tuesday as temperatures are forecast to climb into the middle 40s.

Winds will be coming out of the south from 5-10 mph. A stray shower or two could push off the mountains on Tuesday afternoon but for the most part, Denver will be dry.
The forecast for the remainder of the week looks dry, sunny and milder.
Temperatures will warm into the 50s on Wednesday and then into the 60s through the upcoming weekend. The next chance for showers is on Sunday with a few scattered rain showers possible.
