Wind chills dropping below zero degrees
Strong gusts creating blowing snow and low visibility
Ice buildup on stadium walkways and entrances
Risk of field and equipment freezing despite heating systems
Hazardous travel for fans, staff, and teams
This storm is being classified as one of the strongest December systems to hit the Front Range in recent years.
For safety reasons, the NFL has officially postponed the original kickoff time.
