For the second day in a row Denver’s temperature officially topped out at 97 degrees as measured at Denver International Airport smashing records once again.

The hot temperature tied the record for the hottest temperature ever recorded during the month of September, just as it did yesterday.  It also sets a new record high for the date of September 6, easily besting the previous record of 95 degrees set in 1959.

Here in Thornton we were hotter than the airport as our temperature topped out at a sweltering 99.0 degrees.  This was actually the second hottest temperature Thornton has recorded this year.  Only June 11th was hotter at 99.2 degrees.
