Why is the official temperature for Denver recorded at Denver International Airport (DIA)?

Denver’s official temperatures along with all other weather information except snowfall, is recorded at DIA because commercial airports are the origin of regular weather observations in the United States. This is mandated by the National Weather Service and the Federal Aviation Administration. 9NEWS is not involved in the process of determining the location of official weather observation stations.
