Monthly average for february. We should have 7. 7 inches for the month and we already have 11. 3, that recorded out at dia. Everybody wants to know what they got officially. Here are a few preliminary snow reports. These are by the National Weather service storm spotters, but at watkins about a foot, same goes for fort collins, genesee 22 inches, castle rock 12 inches. Even this shot looks a whole lot better than what it did yesterday around this time. You can finally see the buildings out in the distance, cloudiness. Those roads are wet and especially into the evenings difficult to navigate. Our storm system has pushed off to the north and east caving some big problems for folks not only in colorado causing some big problems for folks not only in colorado but into nebraska and kansas into the midwest. On the warm side of the storm on the south side were talking about severe weather. Thunderstorm watches, warnings and even tornado warnings set up for louisiana into tennessee. Now here is a look at the cold side of this system. We still have that winter storm warning in effect for the Eastern Plains because of the lightly falling snow but very strong winds. Those Winter Weather advisories extend all the way into the the midwest, winter storm warning, blizzard warnings and also Winter Weather advisories. Thats about a distance of 1,000 miles as far as those warnings go because of this big storm system. So a closer look at home, that snow is falling closer to the foothills and also lightly towards the Eastern Plains. Around the metro area youll notice the north side has cleared up as drier air is working its way through, but certainly along i70 we have that light snow falling and gusts on the Eastern Plains up to 30 miles per hour. Thats why when you saw the closure along i70, its because of that. Strong gusts like these with that snow falling causes big problems and the winds we have currently across colorado also making our temperatures feel spots and below zero in some of our mountain valleys. Temperatures 10 degrees in the metro area, thats the wind chill. Were actually in the 20s. So through this evening notice how our skies are going to remain mostly cloudy, maybe some light flurries, but the bulk of this storm has ended. Temperatures currently in the 20s around the metro area and in the high country thats about as warm as it got today. A whole lot to talk about. It seems like i already went through the whole forecast, but theres more i assure you. That cold air settling in tonight, it will change the rest of the week. So hang onto that winter gear the weekend. Well look ahead to what you can expect, warmer temperatures on the way. A little warmth would be a thats not bad. For all the kids and everybody they got the weekend day in the middle of the week. What did we get . Me today. I know, but what did we get . Im so bitter. Thats all right. They enjoyed it. They needed it, i guess. Year for them, a season. Thanks. Denver public works is saying that residential snowplows have made one pass on every side street in the city. Denver deployed 80 plows this morning covering more than 1,000 miles of city streets. A spokesperson tells 9news the plows are designed to make the streets more drivable by plowing the top layer of snow. They say current equipment cant get all of the snow off the streets even though some spots didnt meet the threshold of 12 inches of snow. They still decided they needed to use the plows. Today were seeing 8 to 10 inches, really didnt reach the 12 mark, but we also have a lot of wind which caused drifting. Today was an appropriate day to put them out. The wind has been crazy. Public works says deploying the plows usually costs about 50,000 in overtime costs. This time they did not have to spend that money because all of the work was done in regular a car crashed into a brick wall today on South University boulevard at east hampden boulevard just before noon. One person was in the car. We dont know what caused the crash. You can make some assumptions, but maybe somebody lost control on the ice. Deputies say there was no there never is. Lets just say this for sure. In. Hillary clinton won the Iowa Democratic caucuses in the partys left. One precinct resorted to a coin flip actually to break a tie between clinton and Bernie Sanders. That wasnt enough to put sanders over the top. Clinton claimed 23 iowa 21. More than 170,000 iowans participated in caucuses across the state. The democratic part says thats one of the biggest turnouts ever. Clinton declared victory at a rally early this morning. She later said while discussing the 2000 president ial recount that close elections matter. Sanders spoke late last night as the votes were still coming in. I am so thrilled that im coming to New Hampshire after winning iowa [ cheering and applause ] i can tell you ive won and ive lost there. Its a lot better to win and its also a great tribute to the organization and my supporters there. If i think about what happened tonight, i think the people of iowa have sent a very profound message to the political establishment, to the Economic Establishment and by the way, to the media establishment. [ cheering and applause ] the Iowa Democratic party has said it will not do any recounts and the spokesman for the Sanders Campaign said they results of the caucuses. With her advantage in superdelegates or the Party Officials who can support the candidate of their choice clinton now has a total of 385 delegates. Sanders has 29. On the republican side president ial candidate ted cruz lashed out at marco rubio and donald trump today on immigration. He faced New Hampshire voters for the First Time Since his iowa caucus victory yesterday. Cruz lit into rubio over the fight for amnesty for illegally. He also said trump didnt do anything to fight Immigration Reform as the debate raged on capitol hill in 2013. Trump finished second and rubio third in the iowa caucuses. I can tell you six weeks ago donald trump was saying every day that i was his friend, that he loved me, that i was terrific, that i was nice. Now im an anchor baby. Now i dont really think six months ago something profoundly changed about me, but what did change is his numbers started going down and our numbers started surging. Its not just about winning one election. Its about growing the number of americans who vote on the basis of limited government and free enter prize and a Strong National defense. We need to unify the conservative movement and the republican party. I can do that better than anyone running. Polling has shown trump has a commanding lead in New Hampshire. Health officials in texas say a patient there has acquired the zika virus through sexual transmission. The Dallas County health and Human Services says it received confirmation from the u. S. Centers for Disease Control and prevention today. The patient was infected after having sexual contact with an illegal person who returned from a country where zika was present. Its the same type of transmission we heard about from a fort collins veterinarian. Malaria in 2008. He returned from a Research Trip from senegal after being surrounded by mosquitoes. He says within a week after returning home he began seeing symptoms of a virus. A rash on his chest, sore joints, sensitivity to light, similar to those with zika. A few days later his wife who had not left the country began showing similar symptoms. The zika virus is usually spread through mosquito bites and investigators have been exploring, though, the possibility that the virus can be spread through sexual contact. Yesterday the World Health Organization said the outbreak merits being declare an international emergency. The w. L. O. Estimates that there w. H. O. Estimates that there could be up to 4 million cases of zika in the americas next year. The cdc said women who are pregnant or attempting to become pregnant should postpone travel to places where zika has been detected. The organization putting together the summer olympics in rio says its worried about the theres not enough evidence that people are cancelling travel plans to attend the olympics in august. The committees head doctor said they are not concerned to the point of advising people to avoid brazil during the games. The World Health Organization has not yet recommended travel restriction to brazil. We are digging out from under this winter blast and on any other day that would mean talking to 9news mountain newsroom reporter matt renoux in his mountain newsroom. Without a hat surrounded by snow. Except today. He is in sunny San Francisco on super bowl coverage and now matt joins us again looking a little suntanned. Enjoying it, we can tell . Reporter it has been absolutely beautiful. I hate to say it given all the weather you guys are having back there. Mark and kim, i have needed an umbrella but really only to shade me from the intense rays francisco area. Its been so warm and beautiful with just the slightest chill in the air at nighttime, completely manageable, though, with a light jacket. The truth is it did rain just a little bit this morning. It is San Francisco, after all, but this super bowl is being played in the shadow of palm trees and california sunshine. The flowers here are spectacular and people are enjoying their lunch outside in the kind of springlike weather thats perfect for chasing pigeons or just soaking up the rays, the like all the snow that slowed the mascot thunder down stuck in california waiting for i80 to open but just sent out these pictures today saying that theyre on the road again. Hopefully theyll be here soon. They had padded a little time in so that they could make it here by thursday and start doing appearances then. To do to that that and when they do, the weather will be absolutely perfect. Its, mark and kim, dare i say summerlike, great for eating a little bit of ice cream while doing a live report back in denver. Sorry about this, its so warm my ice cream is melting. You want to get right to that, absolutely. Why dont you just stretch out there completely and get a few rays. Youre nearly completely reclining already, you might as well do the whole 100 . Reporter i am. This is a tough assignment when your ice cream is melting. Dont worry, matt. Well get even. When you come back, we promise theres going to be a really good doozy of a storm up there and well say well just have matt in the show two, three, four times just standing there the whole time. Reporter theres already a Storm Brewing because my wifes had to shovel our driveway in silverthorne the whole time ive been gone. Hear about all that. The double whammy for you. Thats not the storm you want. Thats a good one. And nobody deserves nice weather more than you, i must say, and a little ice cream as well. Enjoy your treat because theres a busy week ahead. Matt renoux reporting live from sunny San Francisco. See you later in the hour. Thanks, matt. His wife is going to give him a dose of what he needs right now since hes rubbing it in. Sunday is a day of significance for football fans, all the more for one couple in particular. Absolutely. Judy and Dennis Brubaker bought their broncos season tickets in 1970 after their wedding. Hours after the broncos won the afc championship game they found out they were picked in the super bowl lottery tickets. February 2nd is the big game anniversary at the same moment. We love Peyton Manning and were hoping for that cinderella story for him because its been one for us. I love it. I love their sweaters. The brubakers say the real Anniversary Gift they would like the most would be a broncos super bowl win and they start driving to california tomorrow morning. Look at the shirts theyve got, everything. Theyre equipped. 46 years and a lottery very special. Good for them. Coming up the other big topic of the day our political expert will join us to talk about what is next for both parties. Heading to New Hampshire. As we head to a break, now both sides have winners, one race much closer than the other the day after the iowa caucuses. Both democrats and republicans are processing what the results mean for each party. Sanders to declare victory. Ted cruz claimed a 3 victory off donald trump. Donald trump edged marco rubio for second. We are joined with our political analysts and the question Going Forward is New Hampshire is next. What has to happen in New Hampshire for the republican candidates to move forward, kelly . I think we learned a couple important things last night of no. 1, my friend james has been saying that republicans have been capitalizing off zeno phobia, but i would like to note that 56 of republicans in a very white state voted for an american of cuban descent or an american. So i think thats really important for us to know and also hillary needed to win by at least 10 for her to really win and her victory was declared literally by a coin flip. So if the people with momentum continue it through to New Hampshire, they should do fairly well, but really this was a momentum building night for them. James, when we talk about, that the Clinton Campaign has to be saying this morning whoa, i mean by the hair of our chinny chin chin. Oh, sure. This had to be a giant wakeup call at this point. What are they doing . Unexpected. Closer. Closer than they ever wanted it. Keep in mind in 2008 hillary came in third in iowa and as soon as results came in, she said im breathing a big sigh of relief. So that was true. Coming out on top or even neck and neck then because she didnt know the end numbers was a big win for her. Dont they say right now if we cant beat Bernie Sanders, how in the world can we compete in the general election against the republicans . She will lose in New Hampshire i predict. Well there, neighboring vermont, but then after that hillary will start to gain in states where voters of color play a much more central role. So a very close race for Hillary Clinton and a somewhat stunning loss for donald trump. Yeah. You know, he almost came in third. Marco rubio almost beat him. I also think its important to note when it comes to the democrats, they really only have two choices. Martin omalley got out last night and to my lefty friends i say welcome to the judge am because republicans have been dealing jungle because republicans have been dealing with a group of motivated insurgents since 2008 with ron paul and with the tea party and you guys are about to experience what its like to have your own version of that with your Bernie Sanders people because they are organized. They are motivated. They are giving money and although i disagree with them on almost every policy point they are true believers and they are going to cause havoc in the Party Structure of the democrat party. Thats not all bad, notice, is it . It gets people though, is it . It get people involved. It get people involved and its a great demonstration of the democratic party. Weve been accused of not having debates. With omalley out it clears the debateds for sanders and chin debates for is around and clinton to go head to head. Sanders and clinton to go head to head. It seems to me marco rubio has tried to be the 1 rising above the fray and not throwing the first punch. When does he go out and go bam against one of the other guys because theyre coming after him now looking at him. Hes definitely showing momentum and we saw this yesterday. People broke away from the polls largely away from trump either towards cruz or rubio. I think the question is at what point are bushs donors going to look at the remaining field out where theyre going to go. Thats when were really going to start to see stuff start to heat up. Speaking of voters we also discovered last night the oldest candidate in the race has some of the youngest voters, james. Thats right. Bernie sanders got 84 of voters under the age of 29 and clinton had older voters, really interesting breaks there. It will be interesting to see if sanders can attract more voters of color and see if clinton can attract more younger voters. Those are the Big Questions still lurking out there. Its always great to have you guys in here. We love it when we have you separated by the middle of the set which hasnt happened before, no fisticuffs this time. Thank you very much, kelly, james. Hardly. Although sometimes on twitter you go crazy, kelly, but thats what its about. Thats the point. Its not mean, just fun. Well go from politics to burt and ernie and big bird. Were talking about an interest next new plans for the Sesame Workshop. There is news today that the fbi is now joining the investigation into the contamination of flint, system. The tap water was contaminated with lead you may recall after the source switched from 2014. It was meant to be a cost cutting move as the city was under state financial management. The corrosive river water was not properly treated and caused lead from pipes to seep into the drinking water. The fbi announced today it is part of a federal investigation which also includes the u. S. Attorneys office and the epa. In order to deal with the water crisis here in flint its going to take a multifaceted approach. You cant just look at one element to deal with ha has happened here. Certainly we have to look at the in
