A cold front moving through Colorado is set to give the Denver area a break from the near-record June heat, dropping temperatures down into the 70s, according to the National Weather Service.
Denver will see mostly sunny weather and temperature highs around 77 degrees Tuesday, according to NWS forecasters.
The city hasn’t seen temperature highs below 80 degrees since May, forecasters said.
Denver saw a high of 99 degrees Monday — the hottest weather the city has seen so far this year and only one degree off from breaking the area’s all-time record of 100 degrees for June 17, according to NWS records. The June 17 record was set in 2021.
The metro area has a small chance of afternoon thunderstorms and scattered rain showers Tuesday, but more storms are expected Wednesday after noon, forecasters said.
