Yesterday, June 28th, Denver hit its highest recorded temperature ever! The mercury in the thermometer soared to 105 degrees Fahrenheit.

Denver has hit 105 four other times since 1872.

This unprecedented heat wasn’t unique to Denver as low 100s spread across the eastern half of the state nearing all-time record highs for many locations.

Temperatures will cool off into the weekend with a few thunderstorms added into the mix.
