State Takes Pounding From Strong Winds
From Times Wire Reports

A wind gust in Golden, just west of Denver, reached 98 mph. The National Weather Service also said a 95-mph gust hit 10,000-foot Kenosha Pass in the mountains about 50 miles southwest of Denver and an 88-mph gust was reported outside Boulder.
