Not only did we receive a healthy shot of snow with this latest storm, we also saw some very cold temperatures. In fact, the first of what could be a few cold temperature records has been set.
As measured at Denver International Airport, the Mile High City’s official high temperature today was only 18 degrees. Not only was that more than 40 degrees below average, it also sets a record for the coldest high temperature for October 29. The old record was 25 degrees set in 1993.
Here in Thornton, we were just a bit “warmer” with a high of 20 degrees.
The record-breaking cold is not done either. There is a good chance Denver sets a record low tomorrow morning and on Thursday morning.
