Denver could touch ninety degrees today. That's the number to keep in mind this Monday morning as the city sits just a handful of degrees away from tying the daily heat record set back in nineteen sixty-one and again in twenty twenty-two.
Here's what matters about today specifically. The forecast puts the high near ninety, and the wind is part of the story.
Tuesday brings a slight reset. A weak cold front moves through and pulls highs back to the upper seventies.
Wednesday is the day to watch just as closely as Monday. Highs climb back to the upper eighties, and this time the relevant record is from nineteen oh-seven, when Denver hit ninety degrees on that date.
Thursday introduces a small wrinkle. There's a slight chance of scattered showers, and highs hold in the mid-eighties, which again would be near record for the date.
The real question worth tracking this week is whether Denver ties or breaks any of those daily records. Monday and Wednesday are the two best chances.
