Colorado & Wyoming The Record MILEPOST 1073

3 counties set all-time record highs in August 3

Across Colorado, Wyoming, the highest readings in each county's series since 1951. The warmest was Albany, Wyoming, at 92.7°F.

Between August 3 and August 3, 2026, 3 counties across 2 states recorded the highest value in their county series, which begins in 1951. The series is NOAA/NCEI nClimGrid-Daily, a gridded county-area average — so these are areal extremes, not single-station readings, and they are not directly comparable to a co-op station's record book.
