DENVER (KDVR) — A storm is bringing heavy rain and snow to parts of Colorado during the first week of May.
A Pinpoint Weather Alert Day has been issued for Tuesday for heavy rain along the Front Range and snow in the foothills and mountains starting as early as mid-morning and lasting into the night.
While Denver won't see snow, it could get a good amount of rain -- almost an inch, which would be equivalent to almost 10 inches of snow if it were cold enough in the city.
Colorado areas that could see the heaviest rain
Here's which areas will see the most rain from Tuesday morning through Wednesday night:
Estes Park: 2 inches Georgetown: 2 inches Conifer: 2 inches Castle Rock: 1.6 inches Boulder: 1.4 inches Monument Hill: 1.4 inches Parker: 1.3 inches Denver: 0.9 inches Fort Collins: 0.9 inches Limon: 0.9 inches Pinpoint Weather: Rainfall accumulation by May 7Pinpoint Weather Meteorologist Travis Michels said Denver's average rainfall in May is 2.16 inches. If it rains nearly an inch in Denver, that would be about half of May's total in a day, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.
Michels said that from the beginning of the year through Sunday, Denver was short 0.93 inches of rain, so an inch would put Denver back to where it should be for the year.
What is severe weather season in Colorado?On average, 1 inch of rain amounts to 10 to 12 inches of snow. While there will be a lot of rain in the area, it's nothing out of the ordinary during the severe weather season. Michels said it's a decent amount of rain for a day, but the rainfall record for May 6 is 3.27 inches.
Many areas across Colorado will receive rain, but there's also snow in the forecast. Dillon could see as much as half a foot of snow, with flakes falling across western Colorado.
