Snowstorm Disrupts Colorado Airports, State of Emergency

A severe snowstorm has led to significant travel disruptions across Colorado, particularly affecting the Denver International Airport (DIA) and Colorado Springs Airport. As of Friday, DIA has faced hundreds of flight delays and cancellations, with United, Southwest, and other airlines significantly impacted. The storm, which has brought heavy snowfall to the region, has resulted in the state declaring a disaster emergency. Snow crews are working continuously to clear runways, but travelers are advised to check flight statuses before heading to the airport. The Colorado Springs Airport has also seen numerous cancellations and delays, with the situation exacerbated by highway closures impacting access to the airport. The weather conditions are expected to persist, with additional snowfall predicted through Saturday.
