Winter returns to Colorado as an unseasonably warm January comes to an end. While the mountains scored best with this system, parts of Denver saw a couple inches less than 24 hours after temperatures were in the 60s across parts of the metro area. The official high temperature in Denver on Thursday was 58 degrees with 60s in a few places along the Front Range. In fact, since the first of January, high temperatures in Denver have been above 50 degrees for 14 days, so half the month thus far has been well above average. It’s a different kind of unusual weather as the year gets off to a strange start.

Record high temps in Minneapolis, MN made it feel more like late April than the second week of January. With record temps in the mid 50s around Minneapolis and little to no snow anywhere to be found, it was easier to spot people out along the Stone Arch Bridge in downtown Minneapolis or around Lake Harriet wearing shorts and T-Shirts then it was to spot snow piles on the ground.

A winter storm hit the central Minnesota area of Stearns County with some areas receiving almost a foot of snow.
A narrow band of heavy snow hit the area this afternoon and caused hundreds of accidents.
The heavy snow and numerous accidents caused Interstate 94 west of Saint Cloud, MN to be closed for several hours this afternoon.
At one point the road conditions were so poor that in order to open up the interstate, a Minnesota State Trooper had to guide a Snow Plow through the traffic jam just to get to the major wreck the shut down the interstate.
Two days ago in Loveland, Colorado the temperature was 82F degrees outside. Today the area was hit hard today by a powerful winter storm that dumped over a foot of heavy wet snow on the region.
Repair crews have been busy most of the night and are still busy repairing infrastructure due to the damage caused by the heavy snow.
The weight of the heavy snow snapped numerous tree branches and the falling tree limbs snapped the electrical and utility lines causing major outages around the area. Most of the tree’s in the region still had all their foliage on them which allowed more the normal amounts of snow to accumulate. Along with electrical service, wide spread internet service outages were reported all over town from downed trees taking out telephone wiring as well.
In the video shot by StormChasingVideo.Com Weather Paparazzi Justin King, it shows the destruction caused by the heavy wet snow as a six inch diameter tree branch is sticking out of a car windshield. The footage continues with more downed tree limbs on cars, homes, modular trailers etc. There are scenes of kids and families sledding on the fresh (now 12 inches) of snow that has fallen in Loveland, CO.
The video continues in the older parts of Loveland, CO that have trees that are over 100 year old. This areas sustained major damage and lost large limbs along with more damage to homes and automobiles due to the falling trees and tree limbs.
In the second half of the video, it shows a POV footage while driving around Loveland, CO to document the damage. Stoplights were down across town along with many downed trees blocking the roads.
