Denver could hit 100 degrees this week – Would be among the earliest dates ever

If you’ve thought it seems really early to be this hot in Denver, you aren’t far off. This week could be among record dates for het in the Mile High City.

100-degree days in Denver aren’t extremely rare, 111 days with temps over 100-degrees have happened in the last 150 years, but to have one in mid-June is.

Right now forecasters are saying there is a pretty good chance that Denver will hit 100-degrees on Friday (June 20), which would be the  the eighth earliest 100-degree day in the city’s history. Saturday also has a good chance to hit the 100-degree mark.

Could this be a sign that we’ll see another very hot summer? Maybe… Last summer, Denver saw six 100-degree days, the third most in Denver’s history.
