DENVER (AP) -- Most wind chill warnings have been lifted across the state, following the coldest morning of the year so far in northern Colorado.

The National Weather Service said wind chills reached around minus 50 overnight on Berthoud and Loveland passes. It was minus 7 in Denver just before sunrise on Wednesday but when the wind blew it felt more like minus 32.

A wind chill warning still remains in effect in the northern mountains through Thursday morning. The National Weather Service says wind chill values will range from minus 30 near timberline to 50 below zero on the peaks. It says exposed skin in those conditions can be hit by frostbite in five to 10 minutes.

Up to 6 inches of new snow is also forecast for parts of the High Country.
