As a result of all the snow, an avalanche warning is in effect through Thursday for all of the Colorado backcountry areas in the northern and western mountains. It is recommended to avoid backcountry skiing and snowboarding during this period of time.

The majority of the snow will be ending Wednesday, but not until it has dumped 1 to 2 feet of snow in the mountains.

Snow has fallen upwards of 20 inches in the mountains of Colorado. Snow is forecasted to wrap up Wednesday night as many travel for Thanksgiving.
