Ah, 2023. The year Denver forgot how to summer. Remember those carefree days of blasting the AC, rocking pool floats, and complaining about how hot our burritos got walking home? Yeah, me neither. This year, Mother Nature decided to serve up a summer so mild, even the ice cream trucks were shivering.
But here's the burning question (pun intended): just how cool was it? How many days did Denver actually hit that magical 90-degree mark?
Tip: Absorb, don’t just glance.
