Record Rainfall in Denver Equals Mosquitoes

Denver has broken a 64-year-old record. What for you may ask? As of this past Sunday, Denver has beat its own record for rainfall.

Denver received 1.14 inches of rainfall on Sunday evening at 7:15 p.m. That officially breaks the record for the day of August 21st. According to the Boulder National Weather Service, the measurements are taken out of Denver International Airport, rather than downtown Denver.

The previous rainfall record in Denver dates back to 1958 when Denver saw 0.99 inches of rainfall. Now, 64 years later we have gotten a new record-breaking 1.14 inches.
According to the National Weather Service, this is also the first time since March 14, 2021, that over an inch of precipitation fell.

While Denver saw lots of rain, the mountains received their first bit of snow. Down south on Pikes Peak, the summit captured its first snow accumulation of the season.
With all this rain, I wonder if anyone else has noticed the amount of mosquitoes biting this year. Being from the east coast, I am used to summers filled with mosquitoes and calamine lotion. But living in Colorado for the last 12 years, I have bragged about the lack of mosquito bites to my New Englanders. That is until this year.

Once again my skin is covered in bites like I’ve never seen in the city. I mean I don’t live by water, so what gives?

Pretty sure it’s not a coincidence that record rainfall equals mosquitoes. So while everything is green at the moment, make sure you cover your skin in bug repellent. You’ll thank me later.
