Warnings and Notices

	Winter Storm Warning
Statement as of 3:50 AM MDT on October 14, 2008 ... Winter Storm Warning remains in effect until 6 PM MDT this afternoon... A Winter Storm Warning remains in effect until 6 PM MDT this afternoon for heavy snow. Snow beginning later this morning above 9000 feet will continue through this afternoon as snow levels fall to 7500 feet by early evening. Expect 4 to 8 inches of snow through early this evening... with locally higher amounts above 9000 feet. Expect heaviest snow along the eastern slopes of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains over western Colfax and western Mora counties... and across Interstate 25 from Raton to the Colorado line at Raton Pass. Snow will taper off rapidly by early evening to ease this winter weather danger. If planning to drive in the high country... or across mountain passes... consider delaying travel if possible. If you must drive... make sure your vehicle is ready for winter driving conditions. Check the latest forecasts... statements... and Road conditions before starting out... and leave plenty of time to get where you are going today. Remember... a Winter Storm Warning means severe winter weather conditions are imminent or highly likely.
