Multiple roads throughout Colorado were closed Friday, March 24, 2017, morning as a winter storm swept through Colorado.Though roads were mainly just wet in Denver, there were blizzard conditions east of Castle Rock. Here’s a list of road closures around Colorado:Interstate 70 is closed in both directions from Airpark to Limon, CO, due to adverse weather conditions. I-70 closed at 5:40 a.m. along UP's Kansas Pacific (Limon Subdivision).  Interstate 25 is closed in both directions from Plum Street to Academy, CO, north of Colorado Springs due to “adverse weather conditions and multiple spinouts”.  This is along Colorado's Joint Line (UP Colorado Springs Subd and BNSF's Pikes Peak Subd).

Weather at Denver rain and clearing around 6:00 AM.

CDOT traffic cams show good road conditions - there appears to be a truck jack-knifed across I-70 near Limon.

Sure brings back memories of growing up in Denver.  I used to really love snow!
