Some of the Front Range foothills in Jefferson, Gilpin and Boulder counties saw heavy snow during a snowstorm Wednesday evening.

A corridor of the foothills from around Genesee to Nederland saw between six and ten inches of snowfall by 9 p.m. Wednesday before the storm cleared out.

Some remnants of the storm are still dropping light snow south in Park County near Monument Thursday morning, but forecasters at the National Weather Service in Boulder expect the northern foothills and Denver metro area to see clear skies Thursday.

Genesee received 9.3 inches of snow, and Nederland received eight inches by 10 p.m. Wednesday.

Other areas that received heavy snow include Pinecliffe in Boulder and Gilpin counties with nine inches, Bergen Park in Jefferso County with 6.2 inches, and Brookvale in Boulder County with eight inches.

The snow was so heavy in the early evening Colorado 119 through Boulder Canyon closed for several hours due to cars sliding off the road, the Boulder County Sheriff’s Office reported on X.

Road conditions have improved since the snow stopped, but snow plows are still working to clear some areas, and the Colorado Department of Transportation reports most highways in the foothills could be icy and wet in some spots.

Thursday will see mostly sunny and clear skies, with temperatures warming up after the storm.

Denver’s high is 49 degrees, and temps will warm to the 60s by the weekend.

Low temperatures for the rest of the week will stay below freezing.
