Yesterday, Denver set a record high temperature for the month of September. We followed that up by breaking the day-old record and also breaking two others.

The high temperature today in the Mile High City, as measured at Denver International Airport, topped out at 100 degrees.

This easily tops the record high temperature for September 2 of 95 degrees set in 1983. Further, this is the hottest temperature ever recorded in Denver in the month of September, topping yesterday’s record-setting 98 degrees.

Lastly, this is the latest a 100 degree or higher reading has been recorded in Denver. The previous latest was August 16, 2002.

Thornton actually was a touch warmer today with a high of 101 degrees.
