DENVER — The summer sizzle is officially on as Denver hit its first triple-digit day of the year. The city also tied the previous record high of 100 degrees, last set in 2022 on Wednesday.
With partly cloudy skies overnight, temperatures won't drop much. Look for lows in the upper 60s to low 70s by Thursday morning.
Good news! We'll get a brief break from the heat as a cold front races across the state Thursday. Daytime highs will be a bit cooler than Wednesday but still warm in the low to mid 90s. A few storms are possible early Thursday afternoon after 1pm in the Denver metro area and there's a risk of severe, hail-producing storms on the far Eastern Plains.
Temps dip into below-average territory on Friday - it will feel like a dream! We'll see highs in the low to mid 80s, with scattered afternoon storms to round out the week.
A few storms will linger into the start of the weekend along with highs in the low 80s Saturday. Look for warmer and drier weather Sunday and Monday with low to mid 90s.
Another cold front pushes into the state next Tuesday, ushering in cooler temperatures and another round of storms.
