   DENVER (KDVR) — Wind gusts in parts of Colorado on Wednesday had the   
   strength of a Category 2 hurricane.   
      
   Power outages, some planned due to fire danger, others caused by the wind,   
   hit tens of thousands of Xcel Energy customers.   
      
   The wind gusts peaked in the early afternoon through early evening, as   
   seen in the National Weather Service’s local storm reports.   
      
   The highest gust was 109 mph near Marshall in Boulder County, with three   
   others topping 100 mph as well.
