Don’t let those “false spring” days fool you, March is historically the snowiest month of the year for Denver.

With an average of 11.5 inches of snow falling onto the city in March annually, it makes up about 20% of Denver’s average yearly cumulative snow total, according to the National Weather Service.

As of Tuesday, the city’s only seen 0.3 inches of snowfall this month, but that would change if the forecast of 8-16 inches of snow in the coming days comes to fruition.
