Thornton’s annual WinterFest kicks off this evening at 6:30pm with the arrival of Santa and Mrs. Claus.  The weather will certainly not be a factor and Santa should be able to arrive without any problem and enjoy their time in our city.

Look for temperatures at the recreation center fields to be around 43 degrees when Santa arrives.  Temps will drop to around 39 degrees by the time tonight’s festivities end at 9:00pm. 

Winds are a bit gusty right now from 10 to 20 mph as a cold front moves through and unfortunately those won’t ease much.  Some higher gusts to 30 mph are possible so it will be a bit blustery. 

Snow is one thing that Santa won’t really find in Thornton this year.  A few flakes may fall this evening but no real accumulation is expected. 

Be sure to check back tomorrow for a complete look at Saturday’s weather for tomorrow’s events!
