Today's Forecast

Denver sets new record high temperature on Wednesday

Jeff Anastasio

Thursday will be a little cooler! A weak but dry cold front will usher in some cooler weather across the northeastern plains and front range. We'll see lots of sunshine and high temperatures in the low- to mid-70s Thursday afternoon.

The winds are kicking up across the state especially across parts of northern Colorado. With the heat and gusty winds in northern Colorado, high fire danger will be a bigger concern. A Red Flag Warning is in effect for Rabbit Ears Pass, North Park and across the northern Colorado plains until 7 p.m. We'll see wind gusts between 30-40 mph, with relative humidity dipping down below 15%.

Get outside and enjoy the taste of fall! Temperatures will climb a bit Friday into the lower-80s and it gets even warmer on Saturday!

We'll soar into the upper-80s on Saturday in Denver, potentially breaking another heat record. The current record is 86 degrees, last set in 1997.
