What winter looks like in Denver
Denver snow often comes in quick storms followed by sunshine that melts much of it within days. Melt that refreezes at night, especially in shade, leaves ice on walks and in gutters.
Typical snowfall. Denver's official Central Park (former Stapleton) site has a 1991-2020 normal of about 49 inches of snow a season, which the National Weather Service says is likely an undercount because only one measurement is taken per day.
