QUOTES FROM SAID STORY:
"DENVER (AP) - A bizarre mix of springlike weather ranging from heavy snow
in the mountains to hail in a suburb and a tornado on the Eastern Plains
swept into Colorado on Monday. Meteorologists predicted a major winter
storm across the Front Range that could rival blizzards in 1991 and 1997.

A tornado touched down Monday afternoon in a rural area about seven miles
northeast of Byers and 40 miles east of Denver, but no damage was reported.

Fredin said pea-size hail fell in Aurora. A few hours after the tornado
touched down, the Weather Service issued a tornado warning for central
Adams and north-central Arapahoe counties."

QUOTES FROM SAID STORY:
"Avalanche warnings were issued for Colorado mountain areas where up to 29
inches of snow fell. Loveland Pass was closed by an avalanche. Up to 3 feet
of snow was forecast for Wyoming's Casper Mountain, with up to 2 feet
expected in the Big Horn Mountains near Sheridan.

The storm began Monday with heavy rain and hail, then turned to snow during
the night and intensified during the morning rush hour. "
