THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF CENTRAL...EAST
CENTRAL...SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST COLORADO.
DAY ONE
THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE FAR SOUTHEAST
PLAINS AND ALONG THE PALMER DIVIDE THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY
EVENING. THE BEST CHANCE OF STORMS WILL BE OVER BACA COUNTY,
WHERE ONE OR TWO STORMS COULD BECOME MARGINALLY SEVERE AND PRODUCE
WIND GUSTS TO 60 MPH. ADDITIONALLY, LIGHTNING CAUSED GRASS FIRES
COULD OCCUR OVER FAR SOUTHEAST COLORADO LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND
EARLY EVENING.
CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TODAY DUE TO GUSTY
WINDS AND LOW HUMIDITY VALUES OVER THE UPPER ARKANSAS VALLEY AND
THE SOUTHEASTERN MOUNTAINS.
DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN
FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY
PRECIPITATION CHANCES WILL REMAIN ELEVATED OVER AND NEAR THE
MOUNTAINS, WITH SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE EACH DAY.
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAY BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD MONDAY AND
TUESDAY IN RESPONSE TO A PASSING STORM SYSTEM. GUSTY WINDS AND
LIGHTNING WILL BE THE PRIMARY CONCERNS WITH ANY THUNDERSTORMS. IN
ADDITION, AREAS OF CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS WILL BE
POSSIBLE GIVEN THE INCREASE IN PERIODS OF DRY, DOWNSLOPING WINDS
WITH THIS PATTERN, WITH THE GREATEST FIRE WEATHER RISK LIKELY
SUNDAY.
SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT
WEATHER CONDITIONS THAT MEET REPORTING CRITERIA FOR SPOTTERS WILL
BE POSSIBLE OVER PORTIONS OF THE REGION.
