Two homes were destroyed and three others suffered minor damage after a fire in one of them quickly spread in a suburban Denver neighborhood in high winds.

A high wind warning is in effect for the eastern half of Colorado. Winds gusting up to around 60 mph have knocked over some trucks on highways.
