Valentine’s Day didn’t offer much warmth across the Front Range as the day started with a frigid wind and gave way to snow which came down extremely heavy at times accumulating several inches in places. Several accidents were caused due to slippery conditions and limited visibility due to the heavy snow out-pacing the melting on the roads.
