Spring starts in the history books
Published on March 21, 2026.
The first day of Spring has been marked by record highs in Grand Junction, Colorado, and beyond. The warmest temperature ever recorded in March was recorded at 82°. Tomorrow's high will be 88° and temperatures could reach 25-30 mph across Western Colorado. Despite a slight cooling trend, temperatures are expected to return to the 80s by mid-November. The high pressure system will prevent any significant rainfall, but it is expected to continue to hinder the progress of the weather.
