Monday
Monday will be dry and mostly sunny with a high temperature in the low 20s.
Tuesday & Wednesday
Tuesday should bring dry weather and a high temperature around 20°F, then snow will likely fall from Tuesday afternoon/evening through Wednesday morning.
There could be 3-6 inches of new snow by Wednesday morning, though this is a tricky forecast as several atmospheric factors will be on the edge of 'okay to great', so there is some downside and upside potential.
Wednesday will be cooler with a high temperature close to 10°F.
Thursday
Thursday should be dry and mostly sunny with a high temperature of around 20°F.
Friday & Saturday
A strong storm with a LOT of moisture will bring snow on Friday and Saturday.
On Thursday night and Friday, the wind direction will not be favorable, so snow totals could be only 3-6 inches with some softening snow on Friday. Also, temperatures will be warm, so snow quality could be thicker than normal.
On Friday night and Saturday, the wind direction will be favorable, so snow totals could be higher, with another 4-8 inches of snow. Temperatures will cool, so the snow quality should be fluffier.
Of the two days, I think Saturday will be the deeper and softer powder day.
Sunday & Monday
Sunday and Monday will likely be dry, though there's a chance for a few snow showers each day if moisture and storm energy lingers over northern Colorado.
Longer Range
The next storm will bring snow around Tuesday, February 18, and there should be another storm around Thursday, February 20.
