DENVER (AP) _ More snow is headed to Colorado, but most of it is
expected to stay in the mountains.

A cold front moving across the region is expected to bring snow and high winds to North-Central and Western Colorado.

The National Weather service has issued a Winter Weather Advisory for West Jackson and Grand Counties above 9,000 feet. Forecasters say from 5 to 10 inches of snow could fall in the Northern and Central Mountains by late Monday.

A high-wind warning has been issued for Western Colorado, including Grand Junction, Silt, Montrose, Nucla and Cortez. Forecasters say the winds cause dust storms, reducing visibility.

A blizzard last week that stretched from the front range to Colorado's eastern plains dumped up to 2 feet.
