Colorado Recovers from Major Winter Storm as Snow Tapers Off

The state begins the slow process of recovery after a significant snowstorm, with forecasts promising gradual warming and a return to spring-like weather next week.

A major winter storm hit Colorado's Front Range and high plains, marking the most significant snowfall in about three years for many areas.
Denver area sees varying snowfall, with the western metro area receiving 20 to 24 inches, while official records at Denver International Airport report only 5.7 inches.
Nederland records the highest snowfall with 53 inches, followed by several other locations reporting more than 40 inches.
Road conditions improve gradually as the snow ends, with temperatures expected to rise, aiding the melting process.
An active storm pattern may bring more snow, but warmer weather next week could help mitigate the effects.
