We knew it was going to be unusually warm today and Mother Nature did not disappoint. In fact, the Mile High City broke a 73 year old record.
As measured at Denver International Airport, Denver’s high temperature today topped out at 86 degrees. This easily bested the previous record high for October 20th of 83 degrees set in 1950.
Here in Thornton, we lagged Denver much of the day but in the end, managed an extra degree above them, topping out at 87 degrees.
We will cool down about 10 degrees for the balance of the weekend. Conditions will remain dry and calm.
