KREMMLING, Colo. (CBS4) - Power was knocked out just before 2 p.m. for the entire town of Kremmling in Grand county.

Mountain Parks Electric officials reached by phone said the issue is with a power substation and this could be a "lengthy" outage.

After about 20 minutes, power was being restored to some residents.

Temperatures are dropping as a winter storm moves into the area, causing concerns for people who rely on electricity for their heating needs.
