Published 9 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Wednesday, July 9th, 2025.
Sunrise brings the start of a sizzling day here in Boulder, as the region braces for a burst of summer heat. Temperatures are expected to hit the upper nineties, possibly even crossing into triple digits for the first time this season. A heat advisory is in effect from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., so if you’re heading out, remember to drink plenty of water, slather on that sunscreen, and check on neighbors who might need some extra help staying cool. Boulder rec centers and Denver Public Library branches are open as cooling centers if you need a break from the sweltering sun.
If you’re looking for ways to beat the heat but still get outside, consider joining the Wednesday Trail Run at Marshall Mesa tonight at 6:30. Meet your fellow trail runners at the Marshall Mesa Trailhead for an evening jog that should catch the coolest part of the day. Just remember, with the heat advisory in place, it’s wise to pace yourself and bring extra hydration along for the run.
For those who prefer an indoor cultural fix, the University of Colorado Boulder’s theatre department is staging Shakespeare’s The Tempest this evening at the Roe Green Theatre. Tickets are still available and the show starts at 7 p.m. It’s a great excuse to enjoy some stellar local talent in air-conditioned comfort.
Music lovers have a full plate tonight and in the coming days. Legendary singer-songwriter Bruce Cockburn takes the stage at Chautauqua Auditorium this evening. If you missed out on tickets, keep your eyes open for last-minute releases or head over to Boulder Theater this Friday for Shakedown Street’s free Grateful Dead tribute show, which is free if you arrive before 9 p.m. Meanwhile, mark your calendar for next week’s Social Distortion concert, also at Boulder Theater.
If you feel like venturing a bit beyond city limits, Denver’s Summer of Loud Festival rocks The JunkYard tonight, featuring names like Parkway Drive and Killswitch Engage for mile-high metal fans. For a slower tempo, Ray Wylie Hubbard performs at the Bluebird Theater tomorrow. And for those craving that iconic Red Rocks experience, Ty Segall headlines the amphitheatre tonight, with Incubus following tomorrow.
In other local news, Boulder Police have confirmed the identity of a man who tragically died after being pulled from Boulder Creek at the 61st Street overpass north of Valmont Road on July 4th. Please keep safety top of mind near waterways, especially as the heat drives more people outdoors.
Whether you decide to rock out, take in a play, or escape to the shade along Boulder’s many green spaces, today is shaping up to be a classic Colorado summer day—hot, lively, and brimming with things to do. This has been Boulder Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
