Snow has tapered off for the time being here at the studios. 7News Weather Producer Chris Spears is on his way in from Aurora where he reported the changeover about an hour ago. Radar showing a hole in the precip right over Central Denver at this time with bands of heavier snow south, east, and north. There's a dry hole in the precip which extends from about Central Denver northwest towards the Boulder area. I'm figuring this will fill in over the next 30 minutes.
Latest AFD indicates the most accumulation will occure between now and noon. The dropping of snow totals by NWS seems to go along with the late changeover tonight, thus decreasing accumulations overnight and having the heavier, more accumulating snows from the morning rush through noon. The dynamics continue to work in our favor for strong upslope and deep moisture, so I'll hang on to my 6-12 inch thinking as I think most places will see at least half a foot by the time all's said and done.
Another update in a bit...
