A storm is projected to dump up to a foot of heavy, wet snow in parts of the Denver metro area from Friday, Nov. 8, through Saturday afternoon, with higher totals expected east of metro Denver.

"Travel will be impossible east and southeast of Denver," National Weather Service forecasters said in a winter storm warning Thursday. "Do not travel or expect to travel in those locations through at least Saturday as heavy snow impacts will last long past this storm."
