Xcel Energy expected to have power restored to 80% to 90% of those who lost power during strong winds by Monday night. Xcel was working to restore power after more than 150,000 customers experienced outages as strong winds moved through Colorado this weekend. About 55,000 of those customers had their power preemptively shut off, and more than 100,000 customers lost power at some point due to the wind. Powerlines were de-energized due to winds causing an increased risk of wildfire in Boulder, Gilpin, Jefferson, Larimer, Douglas and Broomfield counties, as well as the west Denver metro area along the foothills.
