Residents in the Greeley, Colorado area are advised to prepare for the upcoming weather conditions expected tonight. Windsor Severance Fire Rescue recommends checking on friends and family who might need help during the coming days.

Residents using space heaters for warmth should ensure that flammable items are kept at least three feet away. The heaters should be placed on a hard, flat surface and plugged directly into an outlet rather than using a power strip. Additionally, United Way Weld County’s Housing Navigation Center is available at 870 28th St in Greeley for individuals seeking a warm place to stay.

The weather forecast includes wind chill figures for several regions in Colorado. For example, during the period from January 22 to January 25, temperatures at various times are expected to reach lows approaching -15°F in Castle Rock and lower wind chills in Breckenridge and Denver at certain times. Wind chill values for other cities, including Boulder, Estes Park, and others, were also provided for different times of day to help residents plan accordingly.

Residents are encouraged to review local weather forecasts and follow safety precautions as the weather changes.
