Apparently a Colorado low is developing and will result in 5-8 inches of snow for us.
Currently though, the temperature is 46 deg F. Wind is coming from the NNE at around 3 mph. It has been mostly cloudy all day with cirrostratus and cumulus clouds. The low for tonight is supposed to get to around 32 deg F.

When we look at this surface map, we can see the low pressure systems forming in the Western states. This is what will be causing our lovely weather shift Tuesday night and into Wednesday. The predicted accumulation is around 5 to 8 inches. My prediction is similar to that of the National Weather Service, although I'm hoping the temperature will remain warm enough to where the majority of the precipitation we get isn't snow. I'd rather have slush, than snow! I'll be checking the barometric pressure readings off and on tomorrow to see the changes occur as the system approaches.
