hi welcome back everyone; hope you guys are enjoying valentine's day. nice outside. the winds have died down just a bit here in the 9 backyard. they're ripping and roaring around the foothills and unfortunately we have another day on our hands for seeing some pretty gusty wind out there. the clouds have been pushing in as this short wave is dipping into the area bringing snow to the high country. and winds across the plains. boulder you are looking at 60- mile-per-hour speeds last night into early the morning. now -- this morning. now nothing but blue skies out there. a 2 so -- 52. so a bit cooler than the past few days in denver but still price. 40s -- nice. 50s across the arkansas river valley and 30s in eagle and rifle and leadville only 28 today. right now out of the airport we've cooled off a bit about 49 and mostly cloudy skies with the winds now coming at us out of the northwest about 5 miles per hour. here in the 9 backyard things looking pretty good. the temperature readings in the mid 40s a comfortable evening so if you are heading out on the town, i say a light jacket should do you just fine.

so fierce you can see a couple of these reports coming at us, gold hill 91-mile-per-hour speeds. el dorado springs 75. lyons at 69 and 65-mile-per- hour gusts clocked out there in boulder, so again the worst of it around the foothills and tracking the 40-mile-per-hour speeds in allenspark and nederland. 39 longmont right now and 22 up there in fort collins. around the i-25 corridor and broomfield, aurora out there to stapleton all included with this. and unfortunately, it looks like tomorrow is gown to be today. up there in wyoming 36-mile-per- hour speeds in cheyenne. 26 out there in fort morgan. with that being said, this high wind watch everywhere you see in yellow so including the front range foothills and up into southern wyoming. that will last us through tomorrow evening. i think the worst of it kicks a.m. and we could have wind gusts around 75 miles per hour easily around timberline but the sustained winds between 20 and

start to the monday. off and you don't have to go outside and deal with it all. high wind warnings in place for parts of southern wyoming too. high-profile vehicles treacherous and even up and down i-25 with those westerly to be a struggle. as we go throughout the overnight period, winds aren't really that bad. up and down urban corridor, they're breezy by 7:00 a.m. though the winds pick up in intensity quite a bit. from idaho springs in and around the red feather lakes area, the peak to peak highway is going to be a mess. highway 93. you know the typical spots the boulder turnpike, 285, or 287 i fort collins. blustery afternoon. this takes us the about 10:00 tomorrow evening. and still, will be tracking the 50-mile-per-hour speeds up in the mountains, not only they dealing with the winds but also seeing a little bit of snowfall too. you can see it coming down pretty swiftly out there and some wet roads along i-70 too. storm system from the northwest pushing in and the gusty winds off of the mountains and foothills are helping to gobble

not really seeing too much in the way of moisture down here across the denver area. or off to the eastern plains. we'll zoom into mountains because you can see the snowfall beginning to intensify just a bit. along the i-70 corridor toward glenwood springs and just to the west of the continental divide that's where we're picking up a little bit more of that snow and it's finally meeting the i-70 corridor. georgetown and idaho springs on the way to frisco, you will find that snowfall and i think a lot of folks might be liking that especially if you're enjoying the three day weekend up in the mountains. throughout this evening the snowfall will continue up for our northern and central mountains e i'd say the northwestern facing slopes have the best shot of seeing pretty decent snow over the curse of the -- course of the next 24 hours. we could have a couple of little isolated showers pop in across the eastern plains overnight. tomorrow morning, we'll wake up and a bit of sunshine to work with some more snow coming into mountains. and then by lunchtime, few clouds drifting in across the northeastern plains. sunshine to work with through the afternoon and some sightly

but all of that because of the gusty winds coming at us out of the west. so winter weather advisories will be in place and i'm thinking five to ten inches and rocky mountain national park, four to eight for the steamboat springs area and five to ten closer to the flat tops. and especially across vail pass i think that's where you will see six to seven inches and again this will continue through midnight tomorrow. so driving home from the mountains might be a bit tricky. put that in the back i don't have our head. -- of your head. the temps tonight low 30s around town. here in the metro area, the winds picking up out of the southwest before they switch to the northwest tomorrow. numbers still above average. the mid- to upper 50s around here and eastern plains warm just a bit more. especially across southeastern colorado that's where we will have the 60-degree readings and it should be a milder day up in the mountains too. low 60s in arvada lakewood littleton at about 63 and northern colorado looking pretty good too.

steady throughout the day. so 57 tomorrow. we're still going to have a gusty day on our hands. winds turn a bit more breezy on wind will die down. the temperatures will warm up and you guys, there it is. 70 degrees on thursday. our current record? 71. so it's going to be a close one home. >> i feel like we're going to be punished later for the nice temperatures. what goes around comes around. >> march is usually our snowiest month. >> yes. >> we'll cross that bridge later. >> when it comes. >> all right. sounds good danielle. sounds like a plan. well, a festival in mumbai was quickly upstaged by a fire that cut performances short today. flames first appeared at the front door of the outdoor stage performing. once the flames quickly spread thousands of people were safely look at this. for thes rushed in -- firefighters rushed in and got it under control quickly can

it's been fantastic right? all right and i know the winds -- they've just been a pain. >> it really -- i meangusting hard out there. >> wild out there. and then on top of all that we have snowfall up in the high country. so some pretty wild in a lot of folks are enjoying it too. take a look at some of these shots coming into us from loveland. of course, they have their mountain top matrimony. yes a lovely thing they that do at the top of the mountain, dustin capturing all that and i believe he said there are 89 couples out there. and look at this on the snow boards with the veil and all. i'm loving it. so sweet on valentine's day. and you know what? some of these resorts jus picking up a couple of inches overnight again these reports coming at us at 5:00 in the one to two inches but i think more will be on the way as we head towards tomorrow. in fact this winter weather advisory will continue until midnight tomorrow. five to ten inches around rocky mountain national park and rabbit ear's pass and steamboat springs area about four to eight. the flat tops five to ten.

presidents' day around vail and aspen, snowmass, three to six. and then even around winter park and a-basin and breckenridge, about four to eighty. so i -- eight. so i think tomorrow is going to be a great powder day for a lot of the favorite ski resorts. around here it shouldn't be too bad. all right we're going to have the goal with the winds once again but temperatures should be a little bit warmer and i think a little bit more sunshine out there too. once we get through the next couple of days we start to see the winds subside quite a bit. by wednesday mid 60s and i'm going for it. 70 degrees on thursday. and then next weekend a slight little cool-off but still it really doesn't look like we're going to have any moisture in the denver area anyway. >> look at that. >> for the next nine days. >> remarkable. >> everything is going to get really staticky you know the kids are going to be shocking each other but gosh 70. >> that will be pretty. >> unbelievable. outside playing in the park. >> love it. >> what is that like? south beach? >> that is like south beach. >> just like it. >> just like south beach yes. it's close as we get to south beach here that's for sure. >> we'll take it now.

ott much of a -- not motion a morning person either and i can see why the avenues lost in buffalo today. they dropped the puck at 10:30 mountain time the morning, the avs were awol. two goals on the first two shots he saw or maybe didn't see them. colorado down 2-0less than five minutes in and roy had seen enough. patrick pulled varlamov and got to give the head coach credit. he knew simeon didn't have the stuff today. picard gave up just one goal the rest of the game but the damage had been done. eric johnson there with the avenues' only goal.

1. varly's fifth straight game between the pipes was a game to forget. >> yeah, it was -- it was in our mind i mean to think about going with pic. but at the same time i mean he played so well. i mean sometimes when a goalie gets in the zone you just want do let him play and going and going. unfortunately i mean, it was not the start i'm sure he wanted. you got to believe the broncos players will continue to celebrate their super bowl championship for quite a while. still, but john elway is already focused on the future. the combine is less than two weeks away and plus try to sign the big free agents like malik and danny tea. von likely will get a franchise tag. >> all priorities you know and i think that is all the combination and as we go through it. you know it's a fluid process to kind of see where each one is. and you know, talking to -- talk to the representatives and see where they are and so i mean it's going to be a fluid situation but we -- you know we've only you know, our budget is so big. and so we got to make it work

be the time that we can now kind of see where everybody is and start working on that and get a feel for who we're going to be able to you know, to hold on to. and so they're all priorities. we'll have much more from elway on the season final low of broncos tonight at 10:35. make it 53 straight tournaments. and counting. that's how many events phil mickelson played without a win. he took a two stroke lead into the final round today. all he needed was a six footer. phil was 23-23 from that distance or shorter this week. but not 24-24 and it lifts out and von taylor a champion for the first time in 11 years. and finally, we go back to and it's amazing. every time i turn on the television, there's a bronco as a special guest on some kind of national show. last night it was von miller on

on weekend update talking science. >> von, you studied science in college right? >> yeah. i guess you could say that i did. >> okay. now so explain to us, the graffuational waves were -- gravitational waves were discovered -- >> picture two huge forces slamming together like say me and cam newton. [ laughter ] >> you just talking about football man. >> no. i'm talking about science. now these forces that are colliding make gravity waves like when i collided with cam newton forcing the fumble. >> all right, sounds like you're bragging. are you sure you're not bragging about this? >> come on, i told you this is science man. >> okay. now these waves are everywhere in the universe. >> just like i'm everywhere when cam newton closes in. von you already won man. >> look, this is a huge discovery. no one would it would happen

keep the number one offense to just 10 points but it happened and it's amazing, discovery proves that einstein's theory me equals mvp. >> that's so funny. >> he nailed it. >> he really did. >> way do go. he was having a good time. you know, his comic timing i was surprised -- he was pretty on it. it was pretty funny. >> the funny thing is we tried all week to get him to have a little bet of fun with us because he was the number two pick after cam newton. a big connection between the two and he was so game faced. once that super bowl is over the guys are all let it out now. >> they have been amazing. >> i'm not kidding every show there's a bronco popping up somewhere. not just peyton either. they've been spreading it around. >> yep. >> al show miller has -- although miller has the most appearances i think. >> dress tina doesn't have a tie. >> i wonder if von would be interested in one of these? >> i guarantee you he would.

>> allot of these little guys. >> ladies look at that tie. >> once a year. all right.

oh. >> you know what i have often said the only thing that the weekend show needs and a buffet and a dance floor. >> and we're -- with that -- >> we have been talking about this. this is mark's last 5:00 p.m. weekend newscast with us. before he retires and we're trying to duct tape him to the seat. but -- we just wanted to show you how much we're going to miss you and how much we loved having you here, we have this huge cake here. >> gorgeous. >> happy retirement mark. >> i can't believe it. i know rod said he was up all night putting strawberries on it. >> that is just beautiful. i know what i'm having for dinner and i just said i was starving. >> we all have. >> well thank you guys. that's lovely. >> you know -- >> i have a feeling there's going to be many cakes to come. >> there is going to be many cakes to come. >> how deserving.

>> we the jury, find the defendant, guilty! >> reporter: you actually think they read the wrong verdict? >> you feel so alone. >> reporter: it's like a shot in the chest. despair to hope. darkness to light. tonight, a fight for freedom, "in the shadow of justice." what happened to this teenager could happen to any one of our children. everyone should stand up and take notice. at 18, he was arrested for murder. adamant he was innocent. >> reporter: there was no physical evidence to tie him to

>> i had nothing to do with this. i swear to god! >> reporter: so what could have possibly led to this?! >> you stabbed that woman. >> i stabbed her. >> you stabbed her didn't you? >> why would he confess to something he didn't do? why would he? >> reporter: what really happened during that police interrogation? >> the evidence shows you were there. i can't lie about the evidence. >> reporter: i can't lie to you about this, but the officer is lying about lying! tonight, an extraordinary look inside the interview room. >> you don't talk to me, i can't keep you from the worst! >> i was scared. i was shaking. >> reporter: this is one of the most intense interrogations that i've ever seen. welcome to "dateline." i'm lester holt. how could you confess to a crime you didn't commit? it seems to defy logic and common sense. and yet it does happen. advocates say far more often than any of us realizes.
