It was a frigid, record-setting start to the day with temperatures dropping into sub-zero territory overnight. Denver International Airport dropped to -7 degrees, breaking the previous low record of -4 degrees last set in 2006.
The cold continues again tonight. Lows will dip into the single digits along the I-25 corridor, with sub-zero readings again on the Eastern Plains.
An Extreme Cold Warning is in effect until 11 a.m. Thursday for far eastern Colorado as wind chill values continue to dip to near -30 degrees. A Cold Weather Advisory is in effect for Akron, Limon and southern Lincoln County for wind chill values as low as -25 degrees.
Look for a mix of sun and clouds Thursday morning as the next storm approaches the state. The snow will start in the High Country in the morning and make it to the foothills and Denver metro just in time for the Thursday evening drive. It looks like 2 to 5 inches in the heart of the city with 3 to 6 inches in the southern and western suburbs.
The storm will move out Friday morning and temperatures will slowly start to rise! We'll see plenty of melting into the weekend. Look for partly cloudy skies and highs in the 40s on Friday, low 50s Saturday and low 60s Sunday!
So far, it looks like the mild, above-average February weather conditions will stick around early next week.
