Colorado city breaks temperature record set in 1941 thanks to scorchin’ hot day (at least for November)
The start of November has been a toasty one thus far in Colorado, with multiple temperature records already taking a tumble.
According to the National Weather Service, temperatures on Sunday, November 2 rose to 78 degrees Fahrenheit in Colorado Springs. This was two degrees warmer than the daily temperature record for November 2 of 76 degrees, set 84 years ago in 1941. This was also enough to tie the monthly high record for the city, which has been reached on five other November dates since 1924.
A report from Colorado Springs Gazette’s Cleo Westin goes into additional detail, noting that Pueblo also set a record for the hottest November 2 on record – 86 degrees. This was not only the hottest November 2 to ever be recorded in Pueblo (81 degrees in 2008), but also the hottest November day to be recorded in Pueblo history, topping a temperature of 85 degrees that was hit on November 8, 2006.
In general, November temperatures in this part of the state tend to reach highs in the upper 50s to mid-60s, typically not above 70 and certainly not above 80 too often.
While warm and dry conditions are expected to continue over the next few days, cooler temperatures with potential mountain snow are expected in Colorado for the second half of November.
