Snow Tapering Off, Avalanche Danger High
DENVER (AP) — Snow is tapering off across Colorado on Saturday, but the avalanche danger is high across the mountains.
The Colorado Avalanche Information Center says avalanche advisories have been posted in the San Juan Mountains in southwestern Colorado, with avalanches likely after some areas got up to five feet of snow over the past week.
The avalanche danger on other mountain ranges is rated considerable, with avalanches possible on Saturday.
On Sunday, parts of Colorado will be in a deep freeze with some areas facing overnight lows from -5 to -10 degrees.
