Denver weather: Record low temperature set on a frigid morning; blustery day expected

“Bundle up.”

That’s the advice that the National Weather Service in Boulder tweeted out Wednesday, as the Denver area is expected to see cold temperatures in the morning.

In fact, Denver International Airport hit 11 degrees Wednesday morning, which broke the record of 15 degrees, set in 2020, for April 13, the weather service reported.

Temps around the Denver area on Wednesday morning, the weather service said, are “colder than our normal December and January lows,” which is between 17-18 degrees.
