A major winter storm will continue in the mountains through Saturday and a Pinpoint Weather Alert Day is issued as the Denver weather forecast does feature a chance to see light snow Saturday afternoon with minor accumulations possible.

Although metro Denver and the plains will not see much snowfall, Pinpoint Weather is tracking accumulating snow in the high country for the weekend, starting late Friday night and through Saturday.

Mountain driving will be difficult this weekend with heavy snow burying many areas. The Denver metro area will also see light snow and much colder temperatures on Saturday.

Denver7 Stacey Donaldson has the latest on the snowstorm that will bring tough travel to Colorado this weekend- but great skiing! Snow and cold air will move in tonight for the Front Range, and heavy snow will continue in the mountains.
