Denver’s hot streak fizzled Wednesday when the temperatures topped out in the upper 80s after 24 straight days at 90 degrees or hotter.
The new record blew away a 134-year-old mark of 18 consecutive days of 90-plus heat.
The streak ended with a splash. Rain came in sheets across areas of Colorado, and tornado sirens roared a fortunately false alarm in north Denver just before 6:45 p.m.
Flash-flood warnings were in effect in much of central and northern Colorado, and basement flooding was reported in Greeley. The Denver Post
