Discussion 

There is the chance for a high impact type of storm this weekend in Colorado with accumulating snow on the table, but it’ll remains unseasonably mild until mid-week. Temperatures could peak around 65 degrees both today and tomorrow and then will begin a downward trend late in the week. An El Nino enhanced southern branch of the jet stream will bring a powerful Pacific Ocean storm to California later in the week and this system will slide to the Rocky Mountain States by the upcoming weekend with a potential big impact in terms of accumulating snow in the higher elevations.
