No Triskaidekaphobia With Today's Denver Forecast

By Chris Spears

DENVER (CBS4) - Last year on November 13 the high in Denver was only 13 degrees after a morning low of -14!

But there's no need to have any triskaidekaphobia with today's Denver forecast.

We're expecting a high in the lower to middle 50s in the city.

So what exactly is triskaidekaphobia?

It's a pretty big word with a Greek origin and it has a simple meaning: a fear of the number 13.

• tris meaning three
• kai meaning and
• deka meaning ten
• phobia meaning a fear
