DENVER – If it feels like it’s rained a lot lately, you’re not wrong. In fact, it’s rained so much over the past several weeks that Denver has broken several precipitation records – and we’re only halfway through severe weather season.
“Certainly, so far – and especially as far as the kind of late spring and early summer period is concerned – we are way, way up there in the records,” Rodriguez said. While a curse for some, the amount of rain we’ve gotten over the past several weeks is good news for our state’s drought and for Colorado’s wildfire outlook.
“That's some great news as far as wildfire danger, especially in the short-term,” Rodriguez said. “At least for the next few weeks, and likely months as well, we're going to be looking at a below normal wildfire danger, especially for the foothills and the plains, which is where the largest precipitation anomalies have been found over the past few months.”
