Bundle up, Colorado! Subzero temperatures, wind and snow are headed for Denver this weekend, according to the National Weather Service. Light snow was already falling in northern Colorado’s mountains on Tuesday morning,

An arctic blast will bring temperatures 20 to 40 degrees below average and a chance for snow. An arctic front will arrive Friday evening bringing a surge of cold air and a shift in the winds. Denver is looking at a 72+ hour period beginning Saturday with temperatures in the single digits (maybe some low teens if we are lucky) and below 0 degrees.
