An unusually hot Labor Day is just the beginning of a hot week with near-record temperatures.
Monday’s high in Denver is 97 degrees, but forecasters at the National Weather Service said some areas of the plains could get close to 100 degrees during a high-pressure ridge centered over Utah that will continue through Wednesday.
“We`ll likely flirt with 100F across most of our plains this afternoon,” with mid-level temperatures several degrees warmer than Sunday, forecasters said.Forecasters also warned Denverites to stay hydrated and avoid prolonged periods of strenuous outdoor activities if possible. There is a slight chance of light showers in the mountains, but any showers that form will be weak and short-lived.Temperatures will plummet from the 90 and remain mild overnight, falling to the upper 50s and low 60s across the plains.
Record breaking high temperatures are a good possibility in Denver on Tuesday and Wednesday. Moisture will be pretty scarce through this period with a slight chance for a late day shower across Summit and Park counties.
