Southwestern Colorado’s San Juan Mountains could see between 1 and 3 feet of snow this weekend, according to the National Weather Service.

In Utah, meteorologists warned of heavy snow in the Wasatch Mountains south of I-80, the Central Mountains, Southern Mountains and the Western Uinta Mountains, including along some interstates.

Sweater weather is finally here, Denver, and hopefully you have an umbrella handy because even though southwestern Colorado is getting a good dumping of snow this weekend, the weather won’t be as exciting for those us in the metro.
