High County Power Outage Could Be 'Lengthy' As Storm Approaches
KREMMLING, Colo. (CBS4) - Power was knocked out just before 2 p.m. for the entire town of Kremmling in Grand county.

UPDATE: Great work utility crews! Seems like the power is being restored to residents in Kremmling, several folks have messaged me that their lights are back on! https://t.co/oe4mFqH6v2 @CBSDenver
