Boulder doesn’t have an archive of hourly data. However from the daily observations we can confirm this is a new record. Estimated previous records are as follows:
-
Oct 11-14, 1925: ~88 hours
-
Oct 28-31, 1991: ~70 hours
-
Oct 20-23, 1906: ~69 hours
-
Oct 29-31, 2002: ~63 hours (this streak continued thru Nov 2, total time ~109 hours, but not all in October)
For what it’s worth, using the some approach with daily observations only for this year would have yielded an approximation of 102 hours.
