An early winter storm is hammering the Rockies hitting Colorado and Wyoming, causing dangerous road conditions and cancelling flights at Denver Airport.
United Airliens has cancelled about half of its 400 flights per day while parts of interstate I-25 and parts of U.S. Highway 6 have been closed near Lovelland pass.
"There's definitely some adverse driving conditions right now, and it's expected to continue throughout a good portion of the day," said Bob Wilson, a Colorado Department of Transportation spokesman. Wilson said although some cars are sliding off roads, not many accidents had been reported.
The weather is not expected to get better anytime soon as more snow is in the forecast

But it's not 'Early', it's rather late. Average first winter snowstorms in Colorado hit in late September or early October.
That's from over 22 years living in Colorado.
