Triple-digit heat returns with smoke from Canadian wildfires
GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KJCT) - We’re turning up the heat again across Western Colorado. Triple-digit heat could bake the Grand Valley on Wednesday and Thursday. The Grand Valley is almost always the hottest part of Colorado’s Western Slope. We’ll be nearing 100 degrees in the Grand Valley on Tuesday. Some of our backyard thermometers may touch the century mark, but most of us will stay just shy. Wednesday is a different story. High temperatures will range from 101 degrees around Grand Junction to 103 degrees around the Redlands to 104 degrees around Fruita. Thursday will still be cooking, but we’ll turn down the heat a degree or two. High temperatures will range from 100 degrees around Grand Junction and Palisade to 101 degrees around Fruita and Mack.
Scorching Triple Digit Heat Returns to Northern Colorado Next Week
It's always hot in Northern Colorado during the summer months, that is no secret. Daily temperatures can easily hover around the upper nineties in July and August. Some Coloradans like it hot while others prefer to retreat to air conditioning until milder milder temperatures can be tolerated in these months.
