High winds and increased fire dangers are expected on Wednesday across Colorado and Wyoming, especially along the Front Range and foothills. Make sure you are prepared now in case an evacuation notice is issued or there is a power outage & have a way to receive emergency updates.
Confidence continues to increase in strong downslope winds for Wednesday, peaking in the afternoon. Prepare for difficult crosswinds on roads, possible power outages, and high fire danger. #COwx
