DENVER – A winter storm is bringing snow to parts of Colorado, Wyoming and Nebraska just as many holiday travelers make their way home.
Saturday’s storm is forecast to bring heavy snow to parts of Colorado’s plains through Saturday night with near blizzard conditions possible depending on how much snow falls, the National Weather Service said. Snow was also falling in eastern Wyoming and the Nebraska Panhandle.
The weather was causing delays at Denver International Airport. About 5% of its 1,600 daily flights were also canceled, mainly on smaller carriers.
Increased winds are forecast for the region Sunday as the storm heads into the central and northern Plains so blowing snow is expected to reduce visibility.
