A major spring storm that dumped 1-3 feet of snow along the eastern RockyMountains west of highway I-25 slopes through the day on Saturday will head faraway to the east on Sunday. In its wake, warming high pressure will buildquickly.Strong sunshine and marked day-to-day rise in temperature will last throughat least the first half of next week, leading to high temperatures well intothe 70s. Thus, by the end of the day on Tuesday, there will simply be no snowto be seen east of the Rockies and little of that multi-foot snowpack will beleft over the foothills.
