DENVER — It's feeling a bit more like summer rather than the first week of fall! Hope you like the heat because it's not going anywhere, anytime soon.
A ridge of high pressure anchored off to Colorado's west will keep weather conditions very warm and dry all week and weekend long!
Thursday will be the hottest day of the week in the lower-90s. The current daytime high record in Denver is 90 degrees, last set in 2010. The city will be very close to breaking that record!
Temperatures will remain about 10 degrees above normal through the weekend. We'll see mid- to upper-80s from Friday through Sunday.
Another dry cold front will race across the state late Sunday night into Monday, bringing a bit of a cool off for the end of September. We'll stay in the upper-70s Monday and Tuesday before the 80-degree heat makes a comeback by the middle of next week.
Thinking about heading up to the High Country to see the fall foliage? This weekend will be picture perfect for it! Highs will be in the 70s in the mountains along with mostly sunny skies. We're coming into peak season, so get up there while the leaves are still golden!
