If you thought it was unseasonably warm the past few days, the records agree.
The Dillon weather station saw record high temperatures for three days in a row, and while things are expected to cool off a bit for the rest of the week, National Weather Service meteorologist David Barjenbruch said temps will remain above normal for this time of year.
2021 is the new record-holder for the maximum high temperature on April 4 at 61 degrees, April 5 at 62 degrees and April 6 at 62 degrees. The Dillon weather station reports temperature data each morning for the past 24 hours, so the temperature for April 6 refers to data collected from the morning of April 5 through the morning of April 6.
House of Vibes, a new coffee shop in Silverthorne, is full of not only coffee but also trinkets like insects in resin, crystals and plants.
Co-owner Zack Turner said the High Country Healing dispensary previously used the space for medical marijuana sales, but as sales declined, the owners decided to turn the space into a coffee shop. Turner, Joe Pepe and Nick Brown opened House of Vibes on March 1.
“We were thinking about a hospitality lounge, like a smoking cafe,” Turner said. “Silverthorne didn’t pass that, but we also agreed that it would be more fun to just have a coffee shop. Joe Pepe and I are both big into curiosities, so we saw a niche market in town for this type of thing where you can’t really get these items too many other places. So we wanted to open up a space for people to come and hang out and find something that they might not have known they were looking for.”
