covered and slushy in some mountain areas with slick travel. Snow
accumulations of 3 to 6 inches will occur in the mountains north
of I-70, with 1 to 3 inches in Summit County. Little accumulation

showers across the plains for Monday and Tuesday. By the middle of
the week, it should turn drier with temperatures back to near
normal.
