The first Denver snow to fall in nearly a month finally came on the heels of a powerful cold front expected to keep temperatures frigid over the next couple of days with readings at or below 20-degrees expected on Sunday. The snow, while short lived, marks the first precipitation Denver has seen since November 12 when a trace fell.
This snow band dropped over an inch of snow in 30-minutes as snowfall rates approached 2-inches an hour across parts of the Denver-Metro area.
