Heavy snowstorm hits Colorado.
- 12 years ago
A winter storm wallops eastern Colorado with its first heavy snow of the new year Friday.
While the storm created a winter wonderland for some, it was not all fun and games.
The bad weather closed schools and created havoc for many residents.
Sustained winds of 30 miles per hour created blizzard conditions that severely reduced visibility on highways, but forecasters say the snow is expected to taper off by Friday night.
