Denver residents can expect some record-breaking heat on Thursday, as temperatures are forecasted to reach a high of 91 degrees, potentially tying or breaking the record of 90 degrees set back in 2010. The National Weather Service in Boulder warned that the dry conditions will be paired with low humidity levels in the teens throughout the afternoon, making for a hot and uncomfortable day.
The heat is expected to continue into the weekend, with temperatures hitting 90 degrees again on Sunday, potentially breaking another record set back in 1892. The forecast for Friday shows a high near 84 with sunny skies, while Saturday is expected to be even hotter with a high near 88. Monday will still be warm but slightly cooler with a high near 83.
Denver residents are encouraged to stay hydrated and take precautions against the heat, as the scorching temperatures are expected to stick around for the next few days. It hasn’t been this hot on today’s date since 2010, so it’s definitely going to be a day to remember for the Mile High City.
