Flirting with snow?

Springtime in the Rockies can be quite spectacular when it comes to weather, and the next 48 hours are gearing up to be just that. The latest forecast from the National Weather Service shows a barrage of weather advisories issued across the state, including: winter weather warnings, winter weather advisories, winter storm watches, tornado warnings, tornado watching, severe thunderstorm warnings, flood advisories... the list goes on.
At this time any precipitation to fall in Denver looks to be all rain over the next few days. Areas to our south and west (i.e. Castle Rock) may end up with a late-Spring whopper of a snowstorm if temperatures drop enough tomorrow evening. Many mountain locations are bracing for 15 - 30 inches of snow!
