Yeah, not much here in Arvada, i would say less than an inch. The wind is blowing a little and still cloudy, thought i saw the sun trying to come out. But every little moister helps..

It's blowing snow here, but only a couple of inches on dirt. Not even really sticking that much to the driveway or streets.

Sounds like multiple accidents in southern Weld County. Reports that firefighter down off of I-76 near Keenesburg, and they are closing down I-76. Visibility is zero.
