Much Calmer Winds On The Way

By Lauren Whitney

DENVER (CBS4) -

Windy weather has been an major issue on Wednesday for the foothills and high country! Take a look at some of these wind speeds.

A High Wind Warning covers the foothills of Jefferson, Boulder, and Larimer Counties west to Vail Pass through midnight. Gusts will continue to reach the 75-100 mph range at times well into the night. .

While we may be breezy at times in Denver, it won't be anything like the foothills. Temperatures were much warmer thanks to those winds today, we 68 degrees in Denver.

We'll be much calmer Thursday with highs in the mid 60s and more sunshine. Above normal weather will continue through the upcoming weekend.

And speaking of the weekend, don't forget we go back to Mountain Standard Time Saturday night which means clocks move BACK one hour. Yes we get the hour of sleep we lost in the spring but we also get 4:45 pm sunsets next week which are always difficult to accept.
