Were going down to Single Digits if not below zero. Any of the wet spots are going to ice up so be very careful. Well let you know when we might get back to freezing in a few mince. A dangerous drive out there as mike was inceptioning. Those roads are pretty slick. Take a look at i70 east of 225. You can see, based on this picture that the snow is definitely piled up there. The roads lack like theyre pretty clear. The plows have done a pretty gooddjob. But again those roads definitely slick. Any wet spots tonight are expected to get very slick so be careful. I70 east is closed from limon to kansas because of all the dangerous driving conditions. The roads in and around the metro will only get worse as it gets later and the temperature drops, freezing all that melting snow. Molly hendrickson is on the road. Molly, how are the conditions where you are right now . Reporter we really cant theres actually not a lot of traffic right now as we head down i25 north, and the roads arent even very wet. Its cold, 17 degrees. Theres 86 plows in the metro area and 175 in northeast colorado, but as far as i25 goes, its pretty dry, and the conditions are pretty good. Its i70, as you mentioned, we were out there earlier today. I70 east is really the problem area still. Its closed between limon and kansas. The eastbound lanes are, but the westbound lanes are open so i guess we just cant get out of our state. But its closed because of winds and blowing snow and Poor Visibility and really some icy conditions. But back here on i25 as people head home for rush hour theyre really not going to run into a lot of problems until they get off on some of the ramps or overpasses and bridges. it looks pretty good. Thanks molly. Here is another example of why you need to give yourself extra space to stop, he is special around vehicles working to clear the roads for you. The driver of this van rear ended a snowplow in centennial today. Everyone here was okay but obviously this took one of the much needed plows off the streets for some time today. The rest of the plows were out in force across the metro area. Overnight the focus was on the main roads. But as the day went object several cities deployed another fleet to plow side roads. Jennifer kovaleski is live downtown. It takes a lot for cities to plow these roads. Reporter eric, every city has its own criteria. Here in denver it usually requires up to a foot of snow, but today they made an exception. The road that were standing on right now was plowed. Even though ou can still see the snow, denver says that its smaller plows are really only inches of snow. Reporter what do you think about all the snow . I love it. Reporter with the storm comes the big digout. Snow today. Reporter for some, Cross Country skiing denver style. For public works, its all clear. Denver made the call to plow morning. Were seeing maybe 8 to 12 inches. We also had a lot of wind which caused drifting. Reporter it cost 50,000 in overtime in fuel. We were able to do it in eight hours with a persons regular shift so not a lot of overtime cost. Reporter the smaller residential plows only scrape off the top two inches of snow which we saw during the last storm can sometimes leave behind a bigger mess after the storm. If we dont come out you could see flooding, it gets icy, thick. So i think most people reporter in aurora crews will start plowing later tonight. The green lines on this map are priority 3 residential. They get plowed after the main roads and roads near schools and shopping. People out enjoying the snow day are grateful for any help out on the road. I think its good, these residential side streets are really slick. Reporter now, lakewood also made the call late today to plow its residential roads. Crews were out starting although 3 00. They tell me that it cost hem a minimum of 75,000 to clear those side streets. Live in denver, jennifer kovaleski, denver7. More flights at dia were stuck on the ground. There were 143 canceled flights and 350 delayed flights. Dia also brought out hundreds of employees and equipment to remove all the snow and help keep travelers in the air.

Douglas county and cherry creek each have had three. While those districts work to add up the hours required bey the state and parents shuffle schedules, they do so, so they can spend more time with their kids. You can see all the kids out here having a great time with their family. We just want to take full advantage of it and hit the sleds and go with it. Reporter now, we arent necessarily getting more snow this year. However, the storms are timed overnight and interest the morning so theyre kind of wreaking havoc on some of those Early Morning commutes, thus causing some of the closures to.

Were live in santa clara. Levi stadium is behind us, the site of super bowl 50. Chatting with former bronco brandon stokley. Take a look at video. Youre going to like this. Youre gonna love it back in 2012, peytons first season as a bronco, peyton hid brandon for a touchdown over the middle as the broncos beat the panthers, the broncos in their white away uniforms. On that day, brandon, the defense also dominated. Seven sacks on cam newton including a safety. And now we find ourselves here in the same situation. Is cam newton the same quarterback he was back then . Hes a different quarterback, but still pretty much the same player. Youve got to get after him. Youve got to get him off his spots. That means with four, five, sir, maybe seven guys. It doesnt matter. I think this week, at least, where it mattered more last week. You can blitz cam newton a lot more than tom brady . Ea. s a running quarterback. All the defensive players, even gary kubiak said we havent seen a guy that big, that strong that can run that well as a quarterback. So even if you get to him if he takes off, what does the defense do then . Youve got to rally. Youve got to have everybody. It cant be one guy. It ma got to be everybody running to the football and playing all out defense with all 11 guys. And thats what this defense is built on. And i think thats what they are going to do. They are going to play fast and aggressive. And of course the pass rush and the coverage work together. There from talib, from harris, from roby, and all of a sudden that puts pressure on cam newton. Week. Thats what the secondary has been doing all year long. A great job on theetight ends and wideouts. Thats going to allow the pass rush to get there. Brandon, thanks a lot. Well be back tonight at 10 00 with a lot more, live in santa clara. I like the plan to blitz cam. Thanks, guys. See you at 6 00. You like the plan .
