A fast-moving storm began early this morning and was expected to dump about 3 inches in the metro area before it ends around noon, said National Weather Service meteorologist Frank Benton.
"There may be some showers this afternoon but we are looking for this thing to be pretty much dead by noon. The system is moving slowly to the southeast and somewhat dissipating," said Benton.
Roads in parts of the Front Range and Denver metro area are slick and slushy.
A woman died in a one-car rollover accident at Bayou Gulch Road west of Flintwood Road this morning that could have been related to the weather, said Douglas County Deputy Dave Joly. "It appears the weather had something to do with it, road conditions were terrible, it has been snowing in Douglas County since 6:30 and there have been multiple crashes."
The Colorado State Patrol reported a number of weather-related accidents, though none have been fatal, said Trooper Gilbert Mares. "People are driving too fast for the conditions; we do see these kinds of things whenever the weather comes in."
On Saturday, Denver residents basked in balmy weather as temperatures hit 74 degrees, breaking the record high for March.
The temperature in Denver had dropped from the 50s at midnight into the 20s by dawn as cold and blowing snow hit most of the state. By 10 a.m. the temperature in Denver had reached 28 degrees.
