This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for northwest Colorado, southwest
Colorado, west central Colorado, east central Utah, northeast Utah
and southeast Utah.

.DAY ONE...Today and tonight.

Patchy spots of dense fog in valley locales could pose challenges for
Tuesday morning commutes, as well as leftover packed ice and snow on
mountain roads from overnight snow showers. Snow will taper off this
morning, with a few flurries continuing on the higher elevations of
the Park Range into Tuesday afternoon. Fog could return again
tonight in the usual valley locales.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday.

Light snow will develop late Wednesday on most mountain groups.
Heavier snow rates arrive Thursday and Friday, with mountains
expected to see accumulating snow. Chances for winter highlights are
looking better across the mountain zones. Temperatures behind the
cold front Thursday will trend near winter normals, with drier and
slightly warmer conditions next weekend into the new work week.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation is not expected today or tonight, however
spotters are encouraged to report snowfall amounts to the
National Weather Service in Grand Junction.
