Boulder's Polar Plunge Still A Go

BOULDER, Colo. (AP) — Boulder's freezing temperatures on New Year's Day will not be enough to pull the plug on Polar Plunge plans.

The Boulder County AIDS Project is staging the 32nd annual polar plunge where people will be jumping into the Boulder Reservoir on Thursday.

Meteorologist Matt Kelsch has done the Boulder Reservoir plunge twice when the reservoir temperature was about 34 or 35 degrees. This year with ice forming on the reservoir he believes it could be a little colder, with temperatures in the mid-20s.

More than 400 people have signed up for the event, which begins at noon Thursday and will wrap up by 1:30 p.m.
