| Episode narrativeepisode_narrative | As the storm moved into the Northeast Plains the winds intensified.High winds gusting between 45 and 55 mph combined with cold temperatures to create dangerous wind chills from 20 to 35 degrees below zero. Although, the snowfall in the area only ranged from 1 to 4 inches; the combination of wind, snow and cold temperatures forced the closure of Interstates 70 and 76. Interstate 70 was closed from Gun Club Road, just east of Denver, to the Kansas border, and Interstate 76 was closed from Akron to the Nebraska State Line. |
