THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF CENTRAL...EAST
CENTRAL...SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST COLORADO.
DAY ONE
TODAY AND TONIGHT
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE FORECAST STARTING BY MIDDAY
TODAY AND LASTING INTO THE EVENING, WITH THE BEST CHANCES FOUND
ALONG THE EASTERN MOUNTAINS AND ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE EASTERN
PLAINS, MAINLY SOUTH OF HIGHWAY 50. THE FOCUS THEN SHIFTS TO THE FAR
EASTERN PLAINS THIS EVENING, NEAR THE KANSAS BORDER, WITH ACTIVITY
LINGERING TO NEAR MIDNIGHT. THE MAIN THREATS EXPECTED WILL BE WIND
GUSTS TO 45 MPH AND CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING. ONE OR TWO OF THE
STORMS ACROSS KIOWA AND PROWERS COUNTIES MAY BECOME STRONG TO NEAR
SEVERE, PRODUCING WIND GUSTS OF 50 TO 60 MPH.
DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN
SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY
SIMILAR THUNDERSTORM CHANCES ARE FORECAST FOR SUNDAY, THEN AVAILABLE
MOISTURE INCREASES STARTING MONDAY AND LASTS THROUGH THE WEEK,
LEADING TO GREATER SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE AND INTENSITY.
THIS WILL PRODUCE AN ELEVATED POTENTIAL FOR FLASH FLOODING ACROSS
AREA BURN SCARS. ACROSS THE PLAINS, THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE MORE
ISOLATED TO SCATTERED IN COVERAGE, BUT COULD PRODUCE PERIODS OF
MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL, AND GUSTY OUTFLOW WINDS UP TO 50 MPH.
LIGHTNING WILL BE A RISK WITH ALL THUNDERSTORMS.
SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT
WEATHER CONDITIONS THAT MEET REPORTING CRITERIA FOR SPOTTERS WILL
BE POSSIBLE OVER PORTIONS OF THE REGION.
