 Denver residents and water watchers, in the past 48 hours, the Mile High City’s water news has been shaped by a mix of dry skies, cool air, and steady resources. Let’s dive in to what’s making waves—literally and figuratively—when it comes to water in Denver this September.

First up, on the weather front, September in Denver has been notably cooler than usual—average daytime highs have hovered around 25 degrees Celsius, or the mid- to upper-70s Fahrenheit, with nighttime lows slipping into the low teens Celsius, that’s about mid-50s Fahrenheit, according to long-term weather data from the Met Office and University of East Anglia. This downward departure was confirmed this weekend, with temperatures continuing to trend just a bit shy of their typical seasonal marks.

Now, where’s all the rain? So far this month, Denver’s only seen about 30 to 41 millimeters of precipitation, or roughly 1.2 to 1.6 inches—a mere fraction of the average expected for September. For perspective, the normal rainfall for the entire month of September is 1.35 inches, so we’re running about 30% of our norm, as reported by the Weather and Climate monitor and Weather25.com. Over the past two days, skies stayed mostly clear and sunny, meaning precious little new moisture has entered local reservoirs or the Denver Basin Aquifer System.

Speaking of reservoirs and water supply, Denver Water has kept a close watch despite the dry spell. While the lack of recent rain isn’t ideal for grass and gardens, the good news is Denver’s drinking water remains safe, clear, and well within federal and state quality guidelines. The latest from Denver Water’s official communications confirm their continued commitment to rigorous testing and transparency about water quality. Utility crews in the metro area are operating without emergency restrictions, and no alerts for contamination or service interruptions have been issued in the past 48 hours.

For anyone curious about drought status, Coyote Gulch’s September 19 report highlights the ongoing drought contingency measures across Colorado, including the Denver region. Water managers emphasize prudent conservation, asking residents to continue smart watering practices and stay aware of the big picture—especially as dry conditions persist across much of the state.

One interesting local note, as Denver Water referenced on September 9, infrastructure upgrades and stewardship around areas like the Burnham Yard site are still a focal point for ensuring long-term water reliability through changing climate patterns.

To wrap it all up—a dry, cool finish to September has meant modest tap flow into Denver’s creeks and reservoirs, but drinking water quality holds steady, and supply systems are coping well for now. The next few weeks will likely keep conservation in the spotlight as Denver heads into autumn with one eye on the sky and another on those all-important reservoir levels.
