are just joking or if there's an element of truth behind the ribbing. good morning and thanks for joining us. i'm britt moreno. happy friday. ski season is here, but here in the metro we are reaching highs in the 70s. can you believe that? ashton altieri is sharing the good weather with us. good morning. it's good if you like the warm weather. of course, a lot of us are looking for something cooler and a lot of folks looking for moisture. but we're just not going to get that through the weekend. all the snow at arapahoe basin today, or the new snow, wi man-made. and temperatures at the base area will be in the lower 60s later on in summit county. it's about 10 degrees warmer than at this time yesterday for most neighborhoods along the front range. 40 degrees at dia. 37 in boulder. teens and 20s currently in the colorado high country. your full weekend forecast is coming up along with the outlook for the broncos' game. now let's get a check on traffic. joel is off, joe is here. >> reporter: good morning. here's a look at the drive from the north side of town.

from morning ton to denver. highway 36 east, east and westbound 270, and westbound i- 76 nice and wide open. i'll give you the reason why there's that slowdown on southbound i-25 coming up. thanks so much. let's get back to this breaking news. xcel's outage map shows 18,000 people now without power and they are working to restore it. they're trying to get it done by 6:30, 7:00 this morning. cbs4's shawn chitness is along colfax and florence for us that area, shawn. >> reporter: yeah, britt, they were out for about an hour at least and it was an eerie scene to see no light on the businesses, street lights as well as the traffic lights. glad to report at least at this intersection along colfax the power is back on. but still quite a few people who need to get their power back, we've been reporting that number as high as 27,000, now around 18,000. we're getting told by xcel

this went out just before 4:00 a.m. and they are working to get it back. they're not sure exactly when they can open up. they said something happened at a sub station and that's causing this outage. 8,000 customers without power restored already. probably another 18,000 that still need to have their power restored. it will happen in sections because of how large this is. they'll be working to get different areas back on the grid. we're told the ar affected from colfax to alameda and yosemite to sable. we're basically in the northwest corner of where all this is happening. they have an estimate maybe when they'll have this back, hopefully by 6:30 or 7:00. intersections like this, they would be a trouble spot if they didn't have the power running, as drivers are confused when at the don't see the traffic lights on. hopefully that comes back on sooner rather than later.

live in aurora, shawn chitness, cbs4 news. >> that is a great update the lights are back on. thank you for that. one person is in the hospital with serious injuries after a multivehicle crash in denver. we first brought you this story as breaking news last night at 10:00. investigators believe a drunk driver ran a red light and hit three vehicles and a person at 38th and brighton. a passenger and cars was seriously injured. police say the driver that caused the crash tried to run from the scene, but was stopped by witnesses. that person is now in custody. alcohol is a suspected factor in this crash. new developments in an attempted burglary in denver gone wrong. a couple of teenagers apparently hopped a man's fence to try to get to some illegal marijuana plants and the homeowner apparently shot them. that man is now charged with

teenagers, a 15-year-old died. another teen remains hospitalized. prosecutors say the state's make my day law does not apply in this case because keith hammock allegedly never faced a serious safety threat. time for weather and traffic here on this friday morning. ashton is here with a look at the weather. good morning. >> good morning, happy friday. temperatures are not as cold this morning as they were yesterday morning. in denver's tech center it's 40 degrees now. along 39 in lakewood. it's 38 in thornton and 40 in centennial. yes, you'll need the jacket this morning. but you'll notice it's not quite as chilly as yesterday morning. at the bus stop clear, dry, and chilly. 39 degrees for the kids this morning. by 9:00 a.m. we'll be at 48. by lunchtime today, 67. it's one of those days you can take the lunch outside. this afternoon how about 74 degrees? that's 10 degrees above where we were yesterday. ten degrees above normal for

be this weekend. wait until you see the weekend forecast, that's straight ahead. >> reporter: this is a look from copter 4 at i-25, just after 104th. this accident is in the southbound direction. right two lanes are blocked by police and fire crews. it may be for a while. thankfully no serious bodily injuries reported at this time. i want you to take a look at the backups. this is at the 104th. you can see the merge is really slow. very slow traffic with the exception of that left lane. you're going to see speeds dipping into about the teens and 20s, maybe even lower. other than that, britt, we are fairly accident and stall-free in the rest of the metro area. the winner of the colorado race is, drum roll please, a- basin. ski season officially begins this morning. matt kroschel is live there this morning.

morning, matt. >> reporter: yeah, they do. it's because there's snow, 18 inches of it on the mountain. me and the mountain sheep here just hanging out in the parking lot. the mountain goats, sorry, that's what they are. and we're watching something very important. it's the clock up here. once that hits 9:00 a.m., these lifts are going to fire up. right now some of the last efforts being made on the mountain to make snow there. you can hear the snow guns and th about 18 inches up there. folks standing in that line waiting are so excited. >> we're so excited. we're here early to get in line. this will be our third year in a row. >> this is the best place to be in colorado. >> reporter: why? >> because it's the best snow, the best people and the best mountain. >> reporter: heck yeah, lots of excitement here at arapahoe basin this morning. the first to open.

last year it was loveland and a- basin opening the same day, the 29th. this year we're open a little bit earlier. you guys ready? heck yeah, they are. we're having a good time up here. again, it opens up at 9:00 a.m. i'm matt kroschel, cbs4 mountain newsroom. >> i'm impressed with how early people are awake. thank you for that report. the past several months have been really dry in parts of colorado. fact and fort collins have had less than half of their normal precipitation. the extremely dry weather is causing drought. here's meteorologist chris spears. >> reporter: unfortunately we are talking drought again in colorado. it's a frequent visitor to our state. take a look at this map. this just came out yesterday. drought has expanded on the front range. it's now made its way all the way south into denver, and

far eastern plains. we're abnormally dry or predrought in the front range mountains and foothills and across southern colorado. we are here at lake dillon reservoir to give you a view of the water. when we talk about the drought that's currently in place, this is a meteorological drought or short-term deficit in precipitation and that has more of an impact on growing, not the water supply. you can see the reservoir here full, not quite, but pretty high for this time of the year. at 89% storage capacity. f0 normally they would be at 86%. we are in good shape. but it's the mountains behind me that will tell the tale as we go into the weeks ahead. definitely need a good year of mountain snowfall to ensure good water supplies for the year ahead. for now, conserve where you can and hope the snow comes this winter. on lake dillon, meteorologist chris spears. f0 >> such a great point.

illary clinton and donald trump rally support in must win states today. a day after trading insults at an annual catholic charity dinner in new york city. the long-standing event is usually marked by civility among presidential nominees. but with the election just under three weeks away, they couldn't keep their gloves from coming off. f0 >> they worked so hard to get her elected. there they are, the cbs, abc, nbc. >> donald, if at any time you don't like what i'm saying, feel free to stand up and shout, wrong, while i'm talking. >> it came less than a day after the final presidential debate in las vegas, where trump pledged not to accept the outcome of the general election. the clinton campaign claimed a victory yesterday after secure works said the g mail account belonging to the campaign chair

group of russian linked hackers. thanks for joining us. 43 degrees in denver. coming up next here on the cbs4 morning news, after telling the new york giants he abused his wife, the team still decided to resign kicker josh brown earlier this year. now there's new reports out that reveal the domestic violence charges.

traffic on the 4s. we're taking a live look along i-70 and genesee. 39 degrees there. you can see the taillights of a few vehicles making their way into the high country. i have to think at least a few of those are on their way to arapahoe basin. opening day there. downtown denver, 38. at the capitol building, the sun will be up at 7:16 this

we hope that happens since we obviously really need the rain. that would not happen until tuesday. we stay dry from now through monday night football in denver. look at the weekend temperatures. after 74 today it will be 80 tomorrow. 75 sunday, and 73 monday before that small chance of rain tuesday. let's get a check on the traffic, here's joe. >> reporter: it's a tough drive from the north side of town. i-25 and 104th. and all of these headlights are, excuse me, rear lights in because of an accident just ahead of that at 104th as cdot is shifting the cam to show you the backups. speeds into about the 20s, 30s and 40s. going to take you 12 minutes to head southbound from 120th to i- 70. britt, for the rest of town, though, it's looking good. no major accidents or stalls to report on the highways. thank you. this is the news in business this morning. unemployment numbers are coming out this morning, and there's a warning for customers who buy apple products on amazon.

,, ,, a man attacked me in a parking garage. tried to stab me with an 8-inch knife. but i carry a pistol. i fight back. that's why i'm still here. every woman has a right to defend herself with a gun if she chooses. hillary clinton disagrees with that. don't let politicians take away your right to own a gun.

i've seen what can happen as the result of hate. my son matt was murdered in laramie, wyoming, in 1998. he was befriended by two men in a bar who pretended to be gay. they offered him a ride home, and when he was in their car, they robbed him and beat him. they drove matt out to the prairie and tied him to a split-rail fence, then beat him some more and left him for dead. in the aftermath of matt's death, my family saw the best of america in the love and support we were shown. so when i see the hate that donald trump has brought to his campaign for president, it terrifies me. i'd like to punch him in the face, i'll tell ya. ahh, i don't know what i said, uhh, i don't remember. he's a mexican. i could stand in the middle of fifth avenue and shoot somebody, and i wouldn't... words have an influence. violence causes pain. hate can rip us apart. i know what can happen as the result of hate,
