Denver's February likely third warmest in 70 years, experts say

Denver will likely finish this February recording one of the highest average temperatures on record for the month, a National Weather Service official said.

Denver’s average of 41.7 degrees Fahrenheit this February places it third-warmest on record, behind only 42.3 degrees (1930) and 43.7 degrees (1954), a spokesperson with the National Weather Service Boulder confirmed Saturday.

Additionally, Denver’s snowfall of just 13.4 inches from September through February will also be the lowest on record, with the next closest mark in the past 100 years being the 16.2 inches recorded over the same span in 2002-03, the service said on social media.
